The defense in hockey stops the other team from scoring goals. The goalie is also part of the defensive unit, he/she plays in front of the goal. Forwards also play defense, usually against the defense of the other team. Also, during penalties, the defense works in a 4-person unit to hold off the powerplay of the other team.

Add on the 2 goalies and you get a total of 22 players on the average NHL hockey team.If you mean how many PLAYERS PER LINE on a hockey team, then there are 2 Defense, 3 Forwards, and 1 goalie.
