With the current Leafs group, this is how I would set it up. Obviously defenseman are defenseman and forwards are forwards. This is the best way I could think of to display what the lines would look like as you can't slot 3 defensemen next to each other.

Let me know what your thoughts and ideas are. I personally can see this happening at some point in the future. Only takes one team to be brave and have full backing by owners, staff and players. I could see a college or junior team testing this to see how it would work at a lower level. Why not? The idea is so cool and interesting.
