   Summary

   This is just a self indulgent fic about hockey and Boston and my love for both. Featuring vaguely chronological slice of life domestic moments of Ilya during his time as a Boston Raider where he lives with another player and some other rookie named Marlow. Also featuring a lot of hockey.
