b - I don't know what rulebook you use, but my NF book clearly states the penalties for both offensive and defensive goaltending. In the definition of goaltending (4-22) it says "...when a player..." - not a "defensive" player, but a "player".
In the violations and penalties section (9-12) it again uses the same language and specifically outlines the penalties for both offensive and defensive goaltending.
