    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov gets traded from Boston to Ottawa out of the blue and not a soul knows why. On his first visit to the Centaurs arena, he meets the team equipment manager, Shane — a quiet and illusive man that captures Ilya’s interest immediately.

    Shane Hollander has loved hockey since before he could walk. Unfortunately, the one thing he cared more about was living life as his authentic self. He gave up what would have been a promising career in the PWHL—the only chance in this lifetime at professional hockey—to transition. Once the initial sting had worn off, Shane took up equipment managing to keep as close to the game as he could, silently hoping that someday the NHL would be a safe space for people like him. What happens when Ilya Rozanov joins the centaurs and appears dead set on working his way into Shane’s life (and heart)?

    Summary

    Hayden fake-flirts with Shane the way he always does: dramatically, shamelessly, and with zero actual intent other than to wholeheartedly piss off Ilya Rozanov

    And Ilya, unfortunately, has never once in his life been chill.

    Summary

    Shane: I’ve never wanted to share it since our timeline is so…complicated
    Hayden: Is it? You were fucking, then you dated, then you got married. Normal progression!

    Summary

    “You know - my biggest fucking fear came true on a huge scale. The entire planet found out I’m gay, Ilya can never go back to his home country again, my life blew up, and none of you asked if I was okay. I can’t believe I almost gave him up just so I would never have to face this exact reaction from people who yesterday I would’ve considered family. I can’t believe what I almost let you all cost me.” And then, quieter, “I can’t believe how little it took for you to throw me away.”

    Hauling his bag over his shoulder, Shane stared around the room, one more glance at the men he’d given the best years of his career to.

    “Best of luck next year without me.”

    OR

    Hurt by the team's accusations that he let the Centaurs win, Shane gets his pain off his chest before leaving the Voyageurs' locker room for good.
