There is something to this.
I feel the 1st line hasn't been that effective of late because of Ferland inability to cycle and possess the puck well when he's defended. If that line doesn't heat up like the team needs it too, may be worth a shot to switch Ferland and Lazar and see if that can ignite some spark.
Granted, this is when Jagr isn't playing, which will probably be majority of the games. If Lazar produces, then it'll at least force either of Brouwer or Stajan to be scratches.
