I considered the same at a point over the weekend that Lucic could find his way on the Backlund line. He has been a strong defensive and possession forward for many years and while he and Tkachuk lack speed Backlund brings plenty and speed up the middle is more important than the wings.
Tkachuk gets involved in after whistle stuff all the time and having Lucic there to join in the scrums is a way to keep him physically engaged.
It is not ideal but I could see potential there.
