You never actually see the yellow/white stripes of left arm make contact with Doughty.
A few frames after the hit, it seems like his left elbow is actually between Doughty's body and left arm.
That being said, it did seem like Tkachuk "launched" himself into Doughty... so Tkachuk intended to make a hit of some kind.
Do I have a case for a shoulder-hit?

I came to the same conclusion... however, I'm not completely sure.
