That's actually not true. But Doughty is responsible for hitting squarely through the body.Doughty is responsible for not hitting him in the head no matter where his head is at.
If you make solid body contact but the player has put himself in a vulnerable position where head contact is unavoidable, it's still a legal hit.
To me, Carrier put himself in a vulnerable position BUT Doughty poorly timed the hit and ended up picking the head instead of hitting squarely through the body.
And I say this as a fan of Doughty's.
