I think the thing that's nice is last time Ghost came in, he was certainly given some offensive chances, but I think they still deferred to Burns getting the better offensive role who was having a great year. It's also harder to integrate into a new team on the fly, and one that suffered some major offensive injuries.
Now, Burns I think is playing fine this year, but I'm glad they are putting Ghost as the obvious PP1 guy and Burns as the mop up guy. The second unit is a little lacking in talent currently, but they'll probably put together some good mop up duty PP time at some point.
As for Ghost being bad at D, he probably would be on a lot of teams. I think here he can handle being fine in our D structure with help from the forwards to pick up the slack more than he'd get on many teams. We'll certainly see him go through rough defensive stretches, but I think he'll hold his own here.
