Summary
Troy Barrett has always been sensitive, it's something his father tried and failed to beat out of him. It was engrained into his very bones, but he'd learnt to push it down to only crack once alone. He laughed with the jokes, joined Dallas's name calling, or starting fights, and trained hard.
He'd done everything he could to keep his job stable in his team. And he'd been traded, to fucking Ottawa after making the dumb decision to tell Coach that Dallas was being weird. He could have handled it, but he had to go and tell.
Ilya Rozanov was an arsehole, but a carefully curated one. He didn't act like Barrett did, he was careful, and now said arsehole was going to be part of their team.
Or
Troy gets traded to Ottawa sooner than cannon, and I just give Troy a million and one of my health issues, and we pretend he'd be clear to play and drive with these.Bookmarked by Apple_021

Summary
Troy Barrett has just been traded from Toronto to Ottawa; his entire life has been flipped upside down.
His old team hates him, his new team hates him, and the entire hockey world is waiting for him to screw this up, too.
What nobody knows is that Troy’s keeping a secret bigger than any scandal.
A four-year-old daughter.
Troy has spent years hiding her from the public eye, protecting her from the media circus surrounding his name. Most of his former teammates in Toronto never even knew she existed. He intends to keep it that way, after all, how long is he even gonna be here?
This trade is temporary; he'll play better than he ever has and find a better team that will want him.
That’s the plan. Simple. Safe.
It doesn’t take into account nosy teammates like Ilya Rozanov or a cute social media manager like Harris Drover.

Melt Down (go for it, luca haas!) by CHEQMATE

Summary
Luca Haas has a meltdown on the ice in the final five minutes of the game.
So naturally, the best way Luca thought to rebrand was by throwing himself into a summer athlete campaign with the Centaurs, in hope to outrun the fear that he’ll never be as skilled, confident, or sexually expressive as Ilya Rozanov was at his age.
But when the harmless Luca Haas snaps and shocks everyone by fistfighting with Filipino-Canadian youth athlete Angelo Perez, summer quickly derails into a dilemma to be seen as mature, living up to the expectations of the team, and these newfound, guilty urges for the very guy he fought on day one.
Centaur matchmaking. Missing home. A messy summer fling. A mean article. An exploration of what sparks are supposed to feel like. And Ilya catches Luca buying condoms.
And a “bad influence” that makes Luca feel—maybe for just one summer—that it's okay to be a little selfish.
OR; Practically a character study of Luca Haas' insecurities + his foil to Rozanov disguised as me trying to revive the scrapped Haas book
