If that isn't the case there is certainly a gripe, but I was good with it live.

Getting the shot away also doesn’t matter (only in Hockey Canada’s rule book does it matter).

In the show, if your shot quality is reduced due to an infraction from behind, a penalty shot can be called.

Edit:

(iii) The player in possession and control (or, in the judgment of the Referee, clearly would have obtained possession and control of the puck) must have been denied a reasonable chance to score (the fact that he got a shot off does not automatically eliminate this play from the penalty shot consideration criteria. If the foul was from behind and he was denied a “more” reasonable scoring opportunity due to the foul, then the penalty shot should be awarded);
