I like the concept of roles but feel like it'd be better served as an individual basis with maybe a more simplified: Offense/Defense/2 Way concept for the actual lines themselves.

This way you can set individual players to roles that may suit their ratings e.g. Ovechkin as a Shooter vs. Crosby as a Playmaker vs. Bergeron as a 2 Way Forward while assigning the lines they're on to focus more on a general tactic e.g. favoring offense/being aggressive and taking shots, favoring defense/neutralizing opponents, and a two way where it's more emphasis on puck turnover and slight defense.

To take it a step further, I wouldn't be opposed to a slider for each line of 100-0 with 100 being extreme offense and 0 being extreme defense. This way, users can decide how offensive/defensive they want each individual line to be overall e.g. maybe I want Line 1 to be around 72% Offense but Line 2 is more balanced so maybe 54% Offense and Line 3 is 40% Offense.
