Plus Backlund is best with Frolik. I think a third line of Frolik-Backlund-Ryan could be a top shutdown line in the league. All 3 are defensively responsible and are good skaters. With the right shot face off ace in Ryan on that line, they would have faceoff advantages which would mean greater possession.
It's certainly a thought, but I just think it'd have a lack of footspeed. I'd be inclined to go with:

Tkachuk-Monahan-Lindholm
Gaudreau-Bennett-Neal
Frolik-Backlund-Ryan/Jankowski (RWer depends on whether size or faceoffs are needed)
Dube-Jankowski/Ryan-Czarnik
