Whoa! If I'm understanding what you're saying, the above situation is
impossible.
A team with a delayed penalty can not score a goal, since as soon as they
touch the puck, the play is blown dead. This is why the non-offending
team will often pull their goalie when the ref signals a delayed penalty
on a team. The only time a goal can be credited to the offending team on
a delayed penalty is if the non-offending team puts the puck in their own
net. And that doesn't answer the original riddle anyway, since the riddle
stated that there were 2 seconds left in the penalty, meaning that is was
being served at the time. Seems to me like a goalkeeper penalty situation,
since a goalkeeper does not serve his/her minor penalties.
