Might as well make a 2nd (big) crease then.
So when a player is chasing after a loose puck for a breakaway, once the puck enters that bigger zone,
the goalie can play it safely, with the player not allowed to hit them.
(Or just create a bigger crease as UFO stated. Not sure if goalies at the pro level rely on crease for positioning aid any more.
So it could be completely useless.)
If goalies are fair game like a player anywhere outside their little 6 feet radius crease,
that's pretty much telling them to never rush out at all on loose breakaway opportunities,
since they aren't equipped properly to take body collisions.
I guess in a way, that's a solution for increasing scoring....  |

^you need to rely on yourself for collisions as much as relying on your equipment. We see spectacular runs and hits on goalies because they never expect contact, and it is often over-dramatized to help draw a penalty. If they expect some level of contact, and brace and prepare for it, the hits will not be as spectacular. There are easily dozens of hits thrown in one game, and maybe only a handful can be considered highlight reel hits, and this is because most of the time the receiver knows its coming and prepares properly for it.

Open Ice hits can be much deadlier because the player taking the hit doesn't have much to brace against. You can lean into the hit, but that would mean lowering your head towards the player coming at you. The only thing you really can do try to dodge the check, but people have mentioned already that goalies aren't as nimble as a regular player.

pretty cool HTML5 chart that shows all the teams in the NHL that have gone to the NHL Stanley Cup Finals.
Mouse over the team logo to see which years they were there. Mouse over the year to see which teams fought that year.
It's easy to forget which teams have never actually won a cup. HTML5 Experiment: Visualizing the Stanley Cup
