I think you're missing the point of committing penalized acts in the dying seconds. It's not to get the penalty call whistle to save you, it's the actual act of the illegal plays stopping all the opposing players from scoring a goal.
If you check and smash sticks all around the front of the net, it's the checking and stick smashing that saves the goal, not hoping you draw a whistle for a penalty. In fact the whole point of such a tactic is that you never get that penalty call as the game ends.
