I don't see why that would be the case, or why more goals for but more goals against would ease the load.
Sure, it's likely to lead to a lot of low scoring games, but placing a burden on L1 & L2? Not particularly. Maybe a tiny one of knowing that if goals start going in it's on them to score them, but that's counterbalanced by the third line pretty much never sending L1 & L2 on to chase a goal they just conceded.
Yes, thank you for pointing that out to me. If Horny has the pace he did to start last season then it is a very good line #3. I think it is even better now if Tanev slots in for Simon too.
