I agree with everything said in the explanation video, but given what other similar and worse plays have received, 2 games seems excessive.

This is the same punishment that Trouba got for his hit on Stone last month and Stone missed two games after leaving that one. Doughty didn't even miss a shift (although, he likely would have if it had happened with more time on the clock).
