22 points to win it outright. 21 to get into a tie in which they have a decent chance of holding the tie breaker on.
But if you want bottom 10, I think you have to come in under 85 points.
SJ, CHI, BUF, NSH, PIT, SEA, PHI, ANA, BOS are all but locked into the bottom 9 with paces of 83 points or less. Plust most of them sold off, so of that group I think Anaheim is the only one who might not fall off. To let all of Utah, St. Louis, Detroit, both New York teams, and Montreal pass them...I think they need be 7-12. Certainly no better than 7-11-1 (which is nitpicking yes). There's 6 teams that I currently have pacing to finish between 86 and 88 points
