No stars don't always equate but the team has 20 stars on it so even if only half make it that is still 10 guys.
Just for the record these are the number NHL regulars from some of the past teams:
2005- 13 with 3 guys who had more than a cup of coffee
2006- 11 with 4 guys and Bourdon who died
2007- 12 with 2 guys and Bourdon
2008- 12 with 4 guys
2009- 9 with 2 guys
The more than cup of coffee includes guys like Dawes and Boyd.
