That's where the professionals come in. (Not I, but the team paid ones).
Having said that, it is a lot of moving, and a few small risks. So you send down exempt players in Pouliot, Murray and Wilson. Take a pair of small(ish) risks and send down Kevin Porter and David Warsofky, neither of which are more than depth. The you take one medium risk and send down Kuhnhackl. At that point cap space should be at $505,834.
At this point you have the ability to stop having only risked Kuhnhackl, Warsofky and Porter as non-exempt and could get Dupuis on LTIR when the team had a cap hit of $72,494,166 resulting in a relief of $3,244,166.
TBH, I am pretty sure you'd have way too much risk after that point, but 3,750,000 in cap space would be enough to sign Cullen with and still have wiggle room to call DP51 and Wilson (or Porter to save a few more $$) back up for depth at the NHL level.
I cannot recall exactly how I got lower, but it involves moving a lot of the AHL guys back and forth at a time of the year whne most teams are doing the same and cannot pluck from other organizations waver wire.
But now I am going to post that roster as well.
Thanks for asking, cause I am a finicky SOB.
Now to redo and repost.
