Summary
Shane Hollander is the best player in the league. That has never mattered less than it does under Ilya Rozanov, Team Canada's new coach for the 2014 Sochi Olympics.
Shane grew up watching him, playing against him, idolising him in a way he didn't even realise. But as a coach, Shane hates him. He's cold, demanding, and impossible to please. But Rozanov pushes Shane harder than anyone ever has, and slowly his hate turns to obsession, competition to dependence. And Shane learns that their lessons come with a price: desire neither of them can afford.
(OR the coach/player forbidden hollanov you've been waiting for ;) )

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
Ilya looks up at the black night sky and mutters something in Russian. “You want to pay me fifty Canadian dollars to fuck you?”
Or: Shane runs into Ilya on a street corner the night before the Prospect Cup and makes some assumptions. (Because every fandom needs a mistaken-for-hooker fic).

Shane Hollander is Dating a Nice Man From Montreal! by trickysnail

Summary
Shane Hollander has a secret boyfriend, and it’s not Ilya Rozanov. That’s for the best, though, because Shane’s boyfriend is absolutely perfect on paper. He’s also completely on board with the need to keep their relationship out of the press to avoid ruffling any feathers at the MHL commissioner’s office.
There’s only one problem with Shane’s boyfriend. He’s not Ilya Rozanov.
(Canon divergence where Ilya and Shane do separate photo shoots pre-rookie season and never hook up. Somehow. So then Shane has a “normal” dating life.)
