Summary
“We could…be friends, maybe.” Shane’s voice was small, hesitant on almost every sound.
“Wha–” Ilya’s reply was less of a word and more of a stupid, confused noise like he’d been punched. A punch probably would’ve caught him less off guard than what Shane actually said.
“Y’know, text about the hockey gossip? You call, I answer? Friends.”
Something terrifyingly bright exploded into Ilya’s chest. Something dangerous, that felt like maybe it could keep him warm through the summer in Russia, through the chill that permeated his childhood home no matter how warm it was outside.
“And also we like to suck each other’s dicks,” he quipped, trying to deflect.
“Fuck off, Rozanov.”
---
Drunk and young and stupid, Shane and Ilya choose to be honest - just a little bit. To lean into each other, instead of apart. What happens if they choose to be a little bit brave on a Vegas rooftop in 2011, and keep choosing it?

Summary
A butterfly flapping its wings in one part of the world may cause a hurricane somewhere else.
A conversation with Rose Landry leads Shane Hollander to make a decision that he may ultimately live to regret. Far from the eye of the storm, he crashes along the waves, beaten down by wind and rain.
Ilya Rozanov lies in the eye of a hurricane. Sometimes he drifts just close enough to the horizon to get into trouble. Just dangerous enough to keep life interesting - enough to remind himself that he's still alive.
A safe harbor can be found for both, if they can only get there.
--
Or, Post Tuna-Meltdown but before All-Stars in Tampa, Shane comes out to the Metros and it does not go well. He comes up for air in Boston.

Summary
Heat spread across Ilya's face. His mouth fell open slightly. He let out a short, stuttered laugh of disbelief. This couldn't- he was straight, he wasn't-
“Finally got you at your own game.” Shane's smirk widened to a smile, his hand clapping down on Ilya's shoulder to squeeze it slightly. For once in his life, Ilya was unable to find his voice.
“Damn.” Shane laughed, jostling him a bit. “If I had known this was all it took to get you to shut the fuck up, I would have started flirting back years ago.”
----
When old college friends Ilya and Shane show up to their mutual best friend's wedding, they are ready to fulfill their duties as bridesmen. Even after years of not seeing each other, they fall right back into their usual banter.
Ilya loves to flirt with Shane. Shane loves to tell him to fuck off. It's a running a bit. Nothing more than a joke between two friends; because Shane is gay and Ilya is straight and it doesn't actually mean anything…until Shane finally decides to flirt back, and Ilya's world suddenly tilts on its axis.

Summary
“I’m not sure of the exact reasons Montreal has, but the League needs a distraction from the bad press.” Laurenti’s face twists with disapproval. “Crowell’s known to be friendly with the Morin family, they own the Metros. Crowell must have asked for a favor and who knows what he’s promised them in return. Who better to distract from a scandal than Canada’s favorite son?”
The realization hits Ilya like a punch to the solar plexus.
“They’re trading Shane fucking Hollander?” Reilly questions with utter disbelief. It takes a half second more before he follows the question with another. “We’re signing him?”
-
News that Dallas Kent, up and coming star center for the Toronto Guardians, is wanted for murder breaks during the Sochi Olympics.
Neither Shane nor Ilya have any idea that it will change their lives.

Summary
One seemingly insignificant moment changes everything, and Ilya applies for a Green Card in the shadow of the 2014 Olympics. It starts a domino effect that culminates in one night, in Shane Hollander's cottage. A plan is made, but it's so different than what could've been. No Ottawa.
Then, the Metros show their true (very homophobic) face, and Shane quickly realises he needs a new team, not just for their plan, but for himself too.
Thankfully, there is a team that's not only looking for fresh blood, but has a very accepting Captain. Not to mention extremely hot (and Russian) too.

Summary
Shane doesn’t know why he chose to move to Boston to join the Raiders after his hellish stint playing for the Metros. He had a long laundry list of reasons why Boston was the right fit for him: they were a legacy team, it was only a short plane ride away from his parents, it was a good city, a good hockey-loving city, where he could settle down and start to build his life. The list goes on. He thinks his mom even believed some of them.
He couldn’t deny, though, not to himself, at least, that Boston’s star center had a little bit to do with that decision.
…
Shane transfers to Boston early in his career after he finds himself at the center of a scandal with the Metros. Boston gives him a chance to start over, to build the professional hockey career he always dreamed of, but the transfer doesn’t come without its fair share of problems, especially since Boston is home to his on-ice rival, Ilya Rozanov.
The two become unlikely friends when Shane agrees to help him practice his English, bonding as they start to share bits of their respective cultures.
There are some things about Rozanov, however, that Shane doesn’t quite understand.Bookmarked by kayraynelson

Summary
“Just got the word from the officials, Metros are shutting Miitka down for the night," LeClaire says almost dispassionately. “Third period we’re up against,” LeClaire consults his clipboard, “Shane Hollander. Drafted 2009, current starter for the Laval Maples, posts a .905 save percentage.”
Ilya stays where he is, rolling the name around in his head once, without much interest.
Hollander.
Doesn’t ring a bell.
Inspired by that one twitter post, what if Shane was a goalie?

Summary
“You’re going to Boston.”
Long after Farah hangs up, the words keep echoing in Shane’s head. If he had thought his thoughts had been chaotic this morning, when his biggest problem had been his rival potentially fucking him when he came to Montreal in two weeks, that’s nothing compared to the code-red panic that started the instant he found out he was being traded to Rozanov’s team.
Rozanov, who was supposed to be his great career rival. Rozanov, who he’s hooked up with twice now. Rozanov, who had been planning on coming to Shane’s apartment in Montreal to fuck him the next time they saw each other. God, how on Earth is Shane going to walk into his locker room in Boston in a few days time?
The impending awkwardness of dealing with Rozanov is almost enough to eclipse the hurt he’s trying to ignore. The knowledge that Montreal values him so little that they’re willing to dispose of him only six months into his rookie season. Almost, but not quite.

Summary
Sometimes life came at you with a clenched fist and Ilya had never figured out how to duck.
So here he was, twenty-eight years old, single, dealing with the fallout from injuries given to him by the game he loved, and the second youngest assistant coach in the league to one of the worst teams. Stability was hard to come by, but he was managing.
Then along came Shane Hollander to knock him on his ass, one more time.

Summary
Shane was about to take another sip of his IPA when his entire body froze, the glass halfway to his lips. He knew that voice. It had been years since he last heard it, the grindstone of time smoothing the rough edges of the accent, but it was still unmistakably Russian. It was the voice of —
“Hollander?” The man asked.
Shane set the glass down and turned his head slowly, the stranger’s hood-covered face coming into view. He was looking at Shane with wide-eyed surprise.
“Rozanov,” Shane replied flatly.
===
Shane Hollander suffered a career-ending injury in 2014. Later that year, Ilya Rozanov medically retired fresh off of his first Cup win, the circumstances unclear. In less than a year, the hockey world had lost their two biggest rising stars. As well as a budding relationship nobody had even known about.
It’s 2022 now, and Shane hasn’t seen Ilya since. He's tried not to think about it, about whatever they were or what they could’ve become, both on and off the ice. He lives in Toronto now, just far enough away from the life he’d left behind. Only, the world has other plans in mind, when a chance encounter at a bar on New Year’s Day brings 2014 screaming back for him to confront.

Summary
In January 2017, the Montreal Voyageurs ceased to exist. The owner and GM vanished after embezzling $600 million into a crypto scheme, forcing the franchise into federal bankruptcy and immediate dissolution. Contracts were voided overnight. Shane hadn’t spoken to Ilya since the tuna melt incident. Now, with no team, Shane could end up anywhere, on opposite sides of the country, or in the same locker room as Ilya.

Summary
This is a love letter to the all the millenials like me who played it too careful and forgot to enjoy our youth. Shane and Ilya, enjoy it for me, do good. Fuck it good, fuck it right. Life is too short to live it scared.
The arena is too loud.
That’s the first thing Shane notices; not the ice, not the lights, not the jersey on his shoulders that suddenly feels wrong in a way he can’t articulate. The sound hits him like pressure, like something physical, a wall of noise that vibrates in his chest.
He’s already bent over for the faceoff when it hits him- skates set, stick down, weight forward. His body is exactly where it’s supposed to be even if his brain is still skidding uselessly, trying to catch traction.
There’s only a split second before the puck drops.
It stretches.
He lifts his eyes.
Ilya.
Young. So fucking young. Is he dreaming? Not worn by years of hockey, travel, interviews and losses and victories that stack so high they blur together. He’s young again; sharp boned, bright eyed, unable to grow a beard to save his life. Bears black and gold instead of Centaurs red. 'If I look down am I going to be pantsless too?' He thought absently, no way this was real... right?- Language:

Summary
“Rozanov, Ilya-- can you hear me? Fuck! Are you okay?” He asked, frantic. There was so much blood, people were running towards them. He could hear phones being dialled, could feel the presence of others around them.
Ilya’s eyes were open, but it was as if he were looking past him, up towards the sky above. He coughed once and blood sputtered out, dribbling down his face "Mama." He said softly.

Since Shane was a young boy he has been able to rewind time. He had never done it for anything huge, just small things here and there.
Then Ilya Rozanov died in front of him.

He hadn’t killed himself, he knew that’s the last thing Ilya would’ve wanted, but god he just wanted it all to be over.

Summary
Hesitantly, he brought a hand up and watched a figure from his memories reflected back in front of him copy his movements. When this young Shane in the mirror touched his face, he felt it on his own. He squeezed the skin on his right cheek, feeling distant and disconnected from reality. He continued pinching harder until it stung, only to be disappointed when he didn’t wake up back where he was supposed to be.
He really was Shane Hollander, aged 22, all over again.
===
Shane Hollander dies in 2022, on the day of his first wedding anniversary with Ilya Rozanov. Somehow, he's transported back nearly a decade into the past, to 2013, his memories and a ring letting him know it was all real. He speaks Russian now, having learned from Ilya in his past life, and has the benefit of hindsight. But does that mean he can really change anything, make things go more smoothly than last time, or will he be forced to fight for his relationship with Ilya for years, having to hide it once again now that he'd just gotten used to living with it openly? What would he do about his family, his friends? As it turns out, even knowledge of the future isn't always enough.
