11 - 3

To me that bolded stretch is the key. You need to win those 7 games - all of which are winnable games. Then you need to go 4-3 in the other 7 games.

Split the 2 games against Vegas. Split the 2 games against LA. Split the NSH/WPG games. Beat Dallas.

And then you need to beat Anaheim x2, San Jose x2, Vancouver x 2, and Chicago.

That gets you to 96 points and I think with 96 points you will probably be pretty safe.

But at this point the only chance they have is with a long winning streak, and you need to beat those teams below you. It's that simple.
Any 7 in a row would do. I'm thinking it will be the final 7 games to inflict maximum brain damage around here.
