Default Does anybody know their NHL Rules well?

In the second period of tonight's Blackhawks-Sharks game, with about 16 minutes left, Matthew Barnaby shoots the puck past the Sharks goalie, but the Sharks defender inadvertintly lifts the net up, so the puck goes in and than underneath the back of the net. Both refs and the goal judge missed this so the teams play on for about 5 minutes till their's a whistle and the play can be reviewed.

The next whistle comes at the 11 minute mark when Chicago commits a penalty. Barnaby's shot is reviewed and ruled a goal. The clock is reset to 16 minutes, however the Blackhawks are short handed due to the penalty. I was under the impression since the shot was ruled a goal, everything that happened afterwords is washed off. If the Sharks would've scored between Barnaby's goal and the next whistle would that goal have counted?
