If a player is still in the penalty box at the end of overtime, can he be in the shootout?

Mongoose asked:
Shane Doan was in the penalty box at the end of overtime in the Coyotes vs. Ducks game tonight. There were still 3 seconds left in his penalty at the end of overtime. Are the NHL rules the same as USA Hockey rules (which my kid plays with) and the penalized player is ineligible for the shootout? Just wondering. Thanks.
