Goalie Switch when on defence

Not sure if this classes as a bug but I’m not sure that it’s intended behaviour. It could be poor player stats, or bad coaching ability.

In my private game we had a high scoring drawn game with only a few minutes left.

Suddenly whilst they are on the attack in my zone, my goalie flies off to the bench for a switch and they just tap in an easy goal.

Should that happen or am I needed to take the blame for poor stats/fire a coach

The goalie literally skated all the way to the bench, or he was just a long way out of position? The only way he should be leaving the ice is for an extra attacker, and the triggers for that all require that the team pulling the goalie be losing and in control of the puck.
