I have xxx backup goalie at 1.5mil instead of 650k for Brossoit +850k
Difference of -980.834 my estimate should be below yours.
My total is 78,356,998 for 23 players.
Yours is 78,787,499 for 22 players.
The discrepancy is 430.501k. Not huge but, but I don't see where the addition is different.
I think I will try plugging your numbers into my spreadsheet. I am probably making a transcription error here. Like one of my minuses should be a plus or something.

The Petan number I had is actually too low, the qualifying offer has to be at least 10% higher I think, so I just rounded it up to 950k from around ~945k.
I've realized that I was looking at Copp's actual salary rather than his AAV, and I don't know whose contract I was adding Roslovic's bonus to, but 1,106,666 is the correct number rather than the 1,137,500 I had.
I also added Stuart's buyout which moves the Jets less than 50k from the cap.
So the differences from my new total are:
Lowry at 3.2m (-300k, 79,164,998),
Morrissey at 3.2m (-2.3m, 76,864,998),
Trouba at 6m (-500k, 76,364,998),
Petan at 900k, (-50k, 76,314,998)
Hellebuyck at 5.75m (+250k, 76,564,998),
Backup at 1.5m, (+850k, 77,414,998),
Poolman at 1m, (+75k, 77,489,998),
Dano at 925k, (+925k, 78,414,998)
Tanev at 900k (-25k, 78,389,998)
78,389,998 should be your cap hit if those are the only differences, for a difference of 1,075,000 from my new total, or 33k difference from your own.
The difference between your listed amount (78,356,998) and my new total (79,464,998) should be 1,108,000.
So a total of -3,175,000 difference on Lowry, Morrissey, Trouba, Petan, and Tanev's contracts, and +2,100,000 from Hellebuyck, Brossoit/backup, Poolman, and Dano.
Central is such a nightmare
Addition by subtraction now that Hendricks is gone. Best move of the day to improve our chances of winning hockey games. 
We did nothing bad today.
