I think it would just be a really hard thing to enforce. There are times when it's obvious that a hit goes beyond what is reasonable, but there are other times where it is really subjective and open to debate. There are already some consistency issue for calling penalties that have a more black and white interpretation.
I do hate guys like Trouba who I think tries to injure players with hits that are technically clean. I just don't know how you can draw the line.
