3-4 of those defensemen wouldn't crack the NHL on any other teams roster. When you have ahl defensemen playing 30 minutes a night in the nhl, ur goalies are going to look awful.
You put two top 3 defensemen on that team and have the forwards commit to a 2 way game and the team would be competing for a playoff spot (7-10 in the standings).
