Summary
Ilya Rozanov never imagined he would be learning to play hockey at the age of 25, but when he sees an ad for a five-week course, he signs up.
He ends up being the only adult in a line-up full of kids with dreams of going pro. That's not him - not anymore - yet something keeps him coming back each week: their coach, Shane Hollander.

Summary
"'They let you in the locker room?'
'They let you hang out with the team?'
The words shouldn’t have affected Harris. He knew the Centaurs weren’t a traditional team; they were better in so many ways Harris lost count. They had accepted Harris, each of them, with open arms. They never once made Harris feel lesser about his job.
Or his sexuality.
Or his income.
Or his body."Harris's self confidence take a bit of a nose dive after hearing some of the more hurtful comments Troy's father had. Bood is way more observant than anyone gives him credit for. Apologies and barbecues ensue.
I'm definitely playing fast and loose with this book's timeline here. Basically, this is "what if Troy's dad had confronted Harris wayyyy earlier in the book?" So, this fic takes that brief interaction from the end of Role Model and places it somewhere in the earliest blossoming of Harris's relationship with Troy.
It's angst. If you've ever read any of my works for other fandoms, I'm sure you know exactly my brand of angst. I have been obsessed with this book series, and there's a lack of fics for Troy & Harris. Here is my little contribution.
Ilya cameo in true homage to the books

Summary
Odd-Man Rush: The situation that occurs when a team enters the attacking zone and outnumbers the opposing players in the zone.
Or,
Shane doesn’t know why he still feels so off-kilter. He should be the happiest he’s ever been—he won the Cup, he feels like he’s maybe starting to have a few friends on his team, and he’s finally starting to believe his parents when they tell him he won’t get traded again. He should be on top of the world, but sometimes he still feels like the lone defender on an odd-man rush, skating as fast as he can to prevent what feels like an inevitable outcome.
The problem is that he’s not quite sure which outcome it is that he’s trying to stop.

The (other) City Where Dreams Are Made by WiggyTiggy
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
26 Mar 2026
Tags
Summary
Traded, newly-heartbroken, and living in a desolate hotel on the side of the highway, Troy Barrett didn't have high expectations for Ottawa. More than a month into his season with the Centaurs, and his typical evening entertainment still mostly consisted of watching raccoons scavenge in the strip mall below his window.
The only upside was Harris, the Centaurs' perpetually-chipper social media manager. And he seemed endearingly determined to make Troy fall in love with the city.

Summary
There was nothing standard about Shane and Ilya's relationship, so it really shouldn't have been so surprising that they had their first date over a decade after meeting each other.
It also shouldn't be surprising that it took roughly five minutes before it turned into a competition.

Ilya is plummeting to his death when he closes his eyes, heart full of regret.
When he opens them in what feels like just a second later, he is standing outside a rink in Regina, Saskatchewan. There’s a banner on the building across the street:
World Junior Hockey Championship 2009.

Summary
“Which one is yours?”
Shane scans the ice for his daughter’s jersey number. Ilya had been really smug about it when they brought it home. She has your last name, Hollander, he’d said, let her have my number if she wants. Is better, anyway.
“That one,” he says, pointing at the clump of white jerseys. “Number 81. Mila.”
“Oh you’re Mila’s dad!” The woman looks delighted. “I’m Maddie’s mom. Jane.”
She holds her hand out, and Shane has to bite back a grin. He takes her hand.
“Shane,” he says, shaking it. “Nice to meet you.”

Summary
“We’ve made a trade,” Coach announces. “For Shane Hollander.”
It’s like the ground drops out from beneath Ilya, and his heart falls from his chest. It tumbles past rock bottom, down to the cavern that shattered open inside of him on that night five years ago. The night when Ilya walked away from Hollander for the last time.
He can’t breathe.
(Or: Shane doesn’t get hurt, they break up, and they don’t talk for five long years. Until Shane is traded to Ottawa.)

Bumping into Each Other by notesappapologies
Fandom Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid, Heated Rivalry (TV)
17 Mar 2026
Summary
I like the idea of these ‘sliding doors’ moments between these two guys. They are totally obsessed with each other and I think if they somehow were able to spend more time together without the expectations of hockey or immediately hooking up then I think their obvious ‘like’ for one another could come out in any number or ways.
Fancy seeing you here. What if the two hockey boys ran into each other outside of games when they’re in the same city.

Summary
“There is this club. Here in Boston. It is queer club, but secret. No phones, sign NDA beforehand. The cover charge is high, so is more– more exclusive.” He says this nonchalantly, gesturing to the air. He looks up and makes eye contact with Shane. “We could go.” Shrugs. “Together.”
Shane stares at him, mouth open slightly. He waits for the punchline, like Rozanov is setting up some ridiculous joke. Rozanov just stares back at him, almost as if he isn’t breathing. It takes Shane a second to realize that he is being serious, and the earnestness of the invitation nearly brings him to his knees.
“Ilya Rozanov,” Shane grins. “Are you asking me out on a date?”

Summary
He didn’t even realize when he did it, but his fingers were covering his ears by the time all the conversations in the room died down, countless pairs of eyes searching for the source of the disruption. Shane felt like he would throw up any minute.
He pushed his hands harder against his ears when the waiter started apologising to him, his face painted in panic as he promised he didn’t mean to. He couldn’t have been more than twenty years old, and Shane would have reassured him if his teeth wouldn’t have been grinding together to the point that it made his jaw hurt. He needed to get away from there - before everyone would notice that he was seconds away from crying, before his body would betray him and make him slide to the sticky floor. But his legs just wouldn’t work.
“Malysh,” cooed a familiar, warm voice, low enough just for Shane to hear. All the lights and stares were blocked by a slightly taller figure and Shane trusted himself to make eye contact with baby blues. Ilya. “You’re dripping on floor.”
OR
Shane has a meltdown and Ilya takes care of his husband.

"You are doing this on purpose," Ilya accused.
Shane looked up, perfectly innocent. "Doing what on purpose?"
"The—" Ilya gestured. "This. The—the organizing."
"The organizing that I do. Every Thursday. Like I have for the entire time we've been together."
"You know what you're doing."
Shane's lips twitched. Just barely. But Ilya saw it. "I'm folding a hoodie."

Summary
Maybe if the video ended there, Shane thought, it would be okay. Okayish. Still incriminating. Still a fucking disaster. Still embarrassing, to have his breakup with this beautiful actress filmed and disseminated on Reddit of all fucking places, but not a nail in his coffin, burying him alive. But the video didn’t end there.
“Can I ask if you’ve ever been with another guy?” she had to ask.
And he, tears visible in his eyes, had to nod.
Just once. Just a single nod.
Why did he have to nod?
“Have you ever told anyone that before?” He shook his head. “Was it different? With a guy?”
“Of course.”
Of course.
“Was it better?”
“Yes.”
+++
Shane’s conversation with Rose is secretly recorded. Months later, after the All-Star game and Ilya’s confession in Russian, the video gets leaked online. Shane is outed to the world while Ilya is in Russia, and must now finish the 2016-2017 season with the entire world in on his secret.
