Summary
Ilya Rozanov is having a very good night. He’s scored a goal, his edges are perfect, and his chirping of the Vegas Golden Knights’ roster is reaching art-form levels of arrogance. But hockey is a game of physics and ruts in the ice, and it only takes one meaningless check in the third period for Ilya’s season to shatter in a single, sickening crack.
Three hundred miles away, Shane Hollander is forced to watch the replay in a silent equipment room.
When Shane finally breaks and calls Boston forward Cliff Marlow, he expects to be met with confusion or hostility. Instead, he finds that the Boston Bears have been keeping a secret for years— and Shane starts to realize the differences between Montreal and Boston span further than he was ever ready for.
What follows is meddling teammates who insist on doing laundry, PT that involves more sitting and standing reps than really feels necessary, and a boyfriend who is one research paper away from a medical degree. Plus, so much kale.
Or: The one where Ilya breaks his leg, the Bears decide they love Shane Hollander, and everyone argues over who gets to be who in NHL 18.

Summary
Alexei is dead. Anastasia is his. And Ilya has no idea how to be a parent, a captain, and a heartbroken man all at once.
The only thing harder than keeping a five-year-old alive might be keeping himself together.

Summary
When the unsentimental financial imperative of the NHL sees Shane traded to the Boston Raiders, he and Ilya are thrown into closer extended proximity than ever before. As they adjust to life as teammates, they are forced to contend with the nature of their relationship -and must answer for themselves: is it even a relationship at all?
____Sliding down the wall, Shane hunched over his untied sneakers, shoved on hastily when Coach had called him in for a meeting after morning skate.
“Boston wanted you specifically. I’ve already spoken to their GM. You’re flying this evening or tomorrow morning: I’ll confirm once the paperwork clears.”
“Mom,” Shane managed.
“Oh sweetie. I know, okay. Those fuckers, how dare they do this! Two fucking cups! Now all of a sudden they decide they want a reset and you’re going to fund it.”
Shane put his head between his knees and tried to breathe. God, Boston. They hated him there; it was so far away; he was fucking their captain.

Summary
September 2015
Ilya Rozanov is fine. He comes back from summer in Russia a little worse for the wear, with minor injuries sustained during an argument with his brother. It’s nothing he hasn’t dealt with before. Except someone takes a photo, and suddenly his bruises are all over the internet.
He just has to get through the first preseason game against Montreal. Once the public sees he can play normally, scrutiny will die down.
He doesn’t account for a far more private scrutiny: Shane Hollander is on the Voyageurs roster and, against all expectations, determined to get to the bottom of what happened to Ilya in Moscow.
