Here are my projected line combos with cap hits:
Forward Lines
Kunitz (3.73) - Crosby (8.7) - Kotalik (2.1)
Cammalleri (4.5) - Malkin (8.7) - Sykora (2)
Dupius (1.4) - Staal (4) - Kennedy (.73)
Cooke (1.2) then Adams (.6) - Talbot (1.05) - Goddard (.75)
Defense
Gonchar (5 then 4) - Scuderi (.9)
Letang (.84 then 2.5) - Orpik (3.75)
Goligoski (1) - Eaton (2 then 1.25)
Goalies
Fleury (5) - Curry (.75)
Spares
Adams (.6) (2009-10 only)
Zigomanis (.7)
Lovejoy (.5)
Cap Hit
2009-2010 = 60.39/62M
2010-2011 = 59.93/60M

You're cap numbers are high so that's gonna be a buzzkill. IIRC, the current cap number is $56.7M? That might not be exact, but much closer than the 62 you are working with.
