Summary
Shane knows it’s not a good time to have this conversation. He should wait until they’re not both tired from a stretch of tough games, until he’s not exhausted from having all the Centaurs over for the day. He should wait until he can’t feel anger simmering inside him and his shoulders aren’t tense. That’s probably why he doesn’t wait.
“Stop trying to make me be friends with Troy Barrett.”

Summary
The NHL was. Well, the NHL was the NHL. It was like any other long-standing tradition, slightly backwards, and a little to the left. Shane could ignore the words spit at him. Could ignore teasing that got slightly too heated when he started scoring big. Hockey was a violent sport. A contact sport. A sport where tensions ran high and tempers flared higher.
The point was, that Shane knew that the NHL wouldn’t always, entirely love him back. Knew that, maybe, no matter how much he loved hockey, it wouldn’t always be good to him. But. But it’s a different thing hearing it than it is living it. It’s different. It’s.
Well. It is what it is.
OR: a very introspectivey view of Shane's time in the NHL with a focus on Troy Barrett.

Summary
“I turned the other cheek every fucking time. I still got tossed on my ass the second I went too far over the line, and threatened by the commissioner, and told to kill myself on just about every social media platform because my nightmare that I’d get outed came true. And you, after everything you did, got to come out to a supportive team and fans, get a slap on the wrist, and have your happy fucking ending.”
Or:
Shane has been avoiding Troy for months. Ilya and Troy finally find out why.

Summary
Shane can’t look at him. He can’t really look at anyone but he manages to lift his head and stare right back into Troy’s glistening eyes.
“I never had that advantage, Troy. I never got to take it out on anyone, for any of it. All the times I got on that ice to play some hockey and some… fuckwit idiot like Kent, or whoever was calling me slurs— whether they were gay ones or racist ones… I couldn’t just hurl them back and call it a day like you did.”
He swallows hard. He thinks he might be sick a little bit in his mouth.
“You know how fucking lucky you are? To have gotten away with it? They love you, Barrett. This team loves you! You’re fucking celebrated because you overcame this big, terrible thing but for me it’s—”
He thinks about his mom in that very split second. His beautiful, wonderful mom who’d coached him his entire life on how to be polite, how to be well behaved. How to answer to teachers the right way, to coaches, to cops to the press to the general public to his fucking teammates—
He looks away. The fight suddenly drains right out of him and he goes back to his bag.
or: shane decides to confront troy if no one else will
