And before I hear how Kovalchuk is an impossibility cap-wise still:

CAPGEEK.COM TOTALS
(these totals are compiled using the bonus cushion)
ROSTER: 22; PAYROLL: $58.572m; CAP ROOM: $0.441m BONUSES: $0.212m
Includes Brashear's cap hit, but I don't consider him to be on the roster. Brashear + Pick for lower Pick gives you an additional $1.4 million for a total of ~$1.8 million.
$1m allotted for a backup goalie.
Gave McDonagh a cap hit of $850k, he may also have bonuses.
Could save another ~$1m by switching Gilroy for Sanguinetti.
Very doable... could even give Kovalchuk another $500k without too much issue.
EDIT: 6 defensemen because I just think that's just the way Torts runs it. Additional d-man could be added by making one of the above moves.
