I'm okay with it because it shows it's possible.

I wanted them to sit Lomberg when they had Lomberg - Zary/Sharangovich - Klapka as a line and thought it made a lot more sense to have a LW with some offensive talent on a line to deploy it differently. Because you had two skilled players playing with Lomberg which really isn't going to work and meant the 4th line lacked an identity.

Beecher - Morton - Klapka isn't really taking a different approach to the 4th line, and is still not playing Klapka with more talented players...so I still don't love it.

If they are steadfast on having a 4th line that is purely there for "Don't get scored on" reasons then I'd still probably rather they just go Lomberg-Morton-Beacher, play Klapka higher up the line up and just take out one of Zary or Sharangovich.
