Exactly. Get a poor shooter or a situation where running clock is more important and it starts to make sense.
Also it would pressure players to not blatantly commit penalties when they are beat (penalty shots aren't even called all the time) which the NHL should like because of player safety.
If not, at least give the team the option if they want to take a penalty shot or power play. Plus, this is already the rule if a major penalty is committed where penalty shot and penalty are awarded.
