We'll still see players who can body check, rub guys out along the boards, and play physical hockey. But we don't need head-hunting. And Stevens would have been just as good a player without the elbows to the head - the guy could play hockey.
This 'keep your head up' stuff is dumb. No matter how skilled these guys are, they will sometimes need to look down at their feet, and they will sometimes not be aware of another player closing in from a blind spot.
