"A player is trying for goal when the player has the ball and in the official's judgement is throwing or attempting to throw for a goal."
I don't think a foul causing you to lose control of the ball constitues throwing for a goal.

Hold it right there. You just described a common foul above, as per R4-19-2. If you have a common foul, then the ball is dead immediately, as per rule 6-7-7. If the ball is dead, howinthehell can you now have a shooting foul AFTER the ball became dead?
