I think the pros far outweigh the cons in this case. Games running a bit longer is the only real downside (unless your the Canucks and now have to re-strategize your entire game). Even then, I'm sure something can be worked out with the network to have a commercial break during reviews and take out a T.V timeout.
A rule like this can drastically reduce the amount of diving and embellishments in the NHL. If you don't like the sounds of that, then I suspect you are Alex Burrows.
