    Summary

    "You know, Shane actually has a girl here, in Boston. Lily. He’s just as weird about her as Rozanov is about Jane,” Hayden muttered as he took a sip from his glass. Next to him Marleau snorted with laughter. Then he glanced at Hayden, realised he was being serious and raised an eyebrow.

    “I guess the captains have more in common than we realised,” he muttered. Hayden nodded absently as a single thought crept into his mind. One that he did not like at all.

    “It’s not too coincidental, is it?” Marleau asked cautiously. Hayden glanced at the other man. In that moment he knew they were both thinking the exact same thing. But it couldn’t be true, right? There was no way that Shane would ever let Rozanov anywhere near him in that way, right?

     

    Or

     

    Hayden gets unexpectedly transferred to Boston half way through the 2015/16 season and accidentally gets roped into fixing his best friend’s love life.

    Summary

    Shane is in a post-game interview when his world stops.

    He’s just answered a question about Montreal’s offensive strategy going into the game. Clean passes, avoid penalties, draw defenders wide. It had worked and the Voyagers had beat Colorado soundly, 4-1. Shane had scored two of the goals and assisted on a third.

    Usually, Shane would be eager to boast about the win to Ilya. But ever since their fight- since Ilya told Shane to leave- winning feels hollow. Losing feels better, somehow. As if Shane deserves to lose after being so selfish. Ilya gave up everything for him- his home, his team, and to some extent- his happiness. Hockey. Ilya gave up hockey- good hockey- for Shane.

    A ripple goes through the room of reporters. Shane swears he hears the word ‘Ottawa’ and ‘crash’. But no one is paying attention to him anymore.

    “What’s going on?” he asks into the microphone, feeling strange at the role reversal. Usually, he’s the one being asked questions.

    No one answers. And this time he knows that he hears the word ‘Ottawa’ and ‘Centaurs’.

    ------------------------------------------

    Shane rushes to Ilya after the almost plane crash. Their secret is no longer a secret.

    Summary

    “What do we do?” Shane mumbled, the words spoken into his lap, “They’ll terminate my contract, they won’t let me play again,”

    Regardless of what he said, the footage remained, living behind his eyes— a relentless, looping image that haunted his peripheral vision. It haunted him like a bad replay on arena screens; blown up, pixelated, and stripped of all context.

    The original, quiet intimacy was gone, replaced by a voyeuristic nightmare, where every single frame flattened something sacred into something cheap and consumable.

    ─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───

    What if Shane hadn't been seriously hurt in that game against Boston and Ilya had ended things? What if 3 years later, Vegas footage was leaked?

    Summary

    What the hell is a "free agent" and why is Ilya Rozanov one at the end of Heated Rivalry? Would Cliff be suspended for that hit on Shane? How many times a season do Montreal and Boston play each other? How is the order of draft picks determined? How do hockey trades work?

    All this and more is answered in this guide to how the NHL (and thus the MLH) works! This isn't about the rules of playing hockey, but instead the rules of the league itself. Even the boring bits can become great prompts for fic if you believe in yourself!

    If you're writing Hockey RPF, this guide makes sure to point out where the NHL and the fictional book series/show differs, so it still works as a simplified guide for that too!
