You may call something in the first period as a matter of preventative officiating (sending a message) that you would never call in overtime unless the situation clearly warranted it. There are cases where you would differentiate, and with good reason. for example, you probably don't break out a borderline handcheck or carry in overtime if you haven't called it that way the whole game.
And given that "mug" as stated in the initial sitch actually means taunt (as restated later) in some fashion (not clear here), it is not clear that this is a T depending on what was done. And if it is borderline and you are overtime, it's time to step in and put a stop to things but not necessarily where you want to hit someone with a T.
