It should have been more, but at least they actually went to five. I think a lot of people thought they'd go less. I did, anyway.

I didn't know this until recently, but apparently if they call the player...the maximum is 5 games. If it's in person, it could be 10 game suspension.
 
So I guess they called and told him about it, and could only give him 5.
 
I would say more than 5 as well.
