As the Center opposite the benches, you think you hear a timeout request from Team B bench area (you note the clock at 4.0 seconds). Just to be sure, you hold your whistle and to confirm that it was, indeed the HC for Team B requesting the timeout. Once confirmed, as the Center you sound your whistle (at the 1.9 second mark). The timer stops the clock at the 1.7 second mark.
The timeout request was made at the 4.0 second mark. The timeout request was not granted at that time. The timeout request was granted at the 1.9 second mark. The clock was stopped at the 1.7 second mark.

The clock was stopped properly under rule 5-8-3. If the official was looking at the clock when he granted the timeout request, under rule 5-10-1 he can put back up the exact time that he saw on the clock when he granted the request.

By following the rules, you put 1.9 seconds back on the clock.
