Think of it in the same vein as EA's NHL series or SI's EHM. 5 Stars should be the "Franchise" players that pop in every so often(The McDavids, Crosby's, OVs, etc.) like Adam was saying.
Easy way to break down the stars compared to EA's
5 Stars = Franchise
4-4.5 = Elite
3-3.5 = Top 6
2.5 = Top 9
2.0 = 4th line
