That's just just the way i see it, don't lump the Fonz in with dolts like me.
I'm with you actually. This is one occasion where I actually don't think Tkachuk was looking to get away with anything other than interfering with Doughty and bump him back so he'd get to the puck first.

End result I guess is he elbowed him in the face, but I'm not convinced on this one that it was anything other than that. All that said, I get that players like Tkachuk shouldn't get the benefit of the doubt either.
