Exo-Moons? Super size me!

[BDanielMayfield]

Exo-Moons seem to be the next coming attraction in the astronomy world, so I thought I’d post a question or two about these interesting and elusive objects.

In our solar system all the gas giants have many moons. Since they are so large exoplanet gas giants are among the easiest planets to find (not that finding exoplanets is all that easy). Many of these confirmed exoplanets are called Super-Jupiters because they are much more massive than our Jupiter.

With those points in mind here are my questions: As long as they aren’t star hugging hot exoplanets, can we expect them to have a greater number of moons if they are larger in mass? Also, should we expect Super-Jupiters to also have super-sized moons?
