*******
Chloe Bates 𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 @chloeloeloe
I’m attempting to decipher this ASW madness especially with regards to Hollander and Rozanov. Wish me luck lol:
|
@chloeloeloe: 1. Friday morning: Shane Hollander posts (non-hockey or non-brand related!!!) about how this is the best ASW so far. Includes a selfie from him showing a necklace with a ring on it. Notable because a selfie is rare from Shane and the guy notoriously does not wear jewelry which then got everyone wondering: what is going on? Some even believe that the ring is an engagement ring. A screenshot of a ring that’s arguably close to what Shane has was found in a Bulgari website under the Engagement & Wedding category.
[screenshots of Shane’s post and the supposed Bulgari ring]
|
@chloeloeloe: 2. Friday (a few minutes later): Ilya Rozanov posts a selfie of him in a hot tub. Notable because he is shirtless (which is always a welcome sight 😀) and his necklace only used to have the cross. Now it has a ring. Eagle-eyed posters note that the ring looks very similar, if not the same, to the one Shane has.
[screenshots of Ilya’s post and then another of his necklace next to Shane’s, both zoomed in on the rings]
|
@chloeloeloe: 3. So why are these getting attention outside of the usual? Because a portion of the internet has been shipping Hollander and Rozanov since they started. Something about the rivalry being an enemies-to-lovers type of situation. Gained a bit of momentum a couple years back when the two were in the same team for ASW for the first time ever and a cheek/helmet kiss was seen from Rozanov. Gossip about the two having an intense discussion before the game also made the rounds but were unsubstantiated. Then, the whole thing gained more momentum when Rozanov signed with Ottawa, further adding to the discourse (mostly ignored because hockey spaces would like to focus on hockey and nothing else).
[screenshots of different Hollanov shipper accounts talking about the above from previous years]
|
@chloeloeloe: 4. Friday afternoon: Scott Hunter posts a photo of Hollander and Rozanov together. Not unusual since the two are friends and founders of the Irina Foundation. What’s unusual is the two being seen “glued by the hip” for pretty much this ASW. Hunter also liked a tweet talking about how Rozanov and Hollander are captains of their own RPF ship.
[screenshots of the photo Scott took, the posts about seeing them together, and the tweet Scott liked]
|
@chloeloeloe: 5. Friday evening: Marleau (BOS), Boiziau (MTL), and Vaughn (NYC) were out in a bar across who are most likely a couple. Quotes from the night indicate arguments that seem too couple-y according to netizens. Because it’s ASW, players would usually come with their family, hence some thinking the couple across the three were a hockey player and his wife or girlfriend. Boiziau chimes heavily implying that it’s a hockey player with a boyfriend.
[screenshots of Cliff’s posts and the exchange between Boiziau and a twitter user]
|
@chloeloeloe: 6. Saturday morning: Hayes, Ottawa’s goalie, posts about his Spider-Man pancake. Under his post, Rozanov and Hollander exchanged banter. Hayes replies to them to leave him alone. Users have pointed out that in Hayes’ photo, there are two pairs of arms in front of him. Those who have been following them closely have noted that the arms look like Hollander’s and Rozanov’s although no irrefutable evidence could be produced.
[screenshots of Wyatt’s post, the comments from Shane and Ilya, and other posts speculating about whose arms those are]
|
@chloeloeloe: 7. So that’s it for now. Surely, more people will be tuned in to the game tonight and social media will be active about it. Keeping an eye out for whatever is going on. Later!

Shane Hollander ✅ @shanehollanderhockeyplayer
Morning, Anaheim.

@chloeloeloe: 8. Saturday morning: Hollander posted the Anaheim skyline but (some argue) another pair of limbs can be seen under the blanket by the foreground. Some think it’s just the way beds are like if unmade.
[screenshots of Shane’s post and the comments arguing what that weird lump is]
|
@chloeloeloe: 9. A few minutes later: Rozanov posted a made bed. Some think it’s the same bed Hollander has but some, rightfully, argue that they’re in a hotel and sheets will look the same.

@chloeloeloe: 11. Valentine’s Day dinner: Hollander posted a photo of him on what looks like a date with an arm in a dark long-sleeved shirt somewhat visible. It is noted that it’s impossible to tell who exactly that arm belongs to but some have pinpointed Rozanov’s outfit that same night. Rozanov implied he’s also out on a date for Valentine’s Day.

@chloeloeloe: 12. Feb 15 morning: Hollander posted an IG story of him at the Canadian Museum of Nature with Rozanov who, in turn, made fun of Hunter (NYC) and Bennett (ret.

Chloe Bates 𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 @chloeloeloe
Sorry everyone! Got busy with life plus a long-ish vacation to the motherland! Here are some updates:
|
@chloeloeloe: 13. Ottawans claim they have seen certain people hang out over the years but have never publicised it. The certain people are ones the public will not necessarily associate with each other and were not named in the posts but context clues lead others to think it’s Hollander and Rozanov.
|
@chloeloeloe: 14. Users report that Hollander’s and Rozanov’s close family and friends follow the other on social media.
|
@chloeloeloe: 15. Boodram (OTT - A) hosted a bbq (note: this is a regular occurrence for the Cens) where Hollander is in attendance. Hollander and Rozanov engaged in an arm wrestling match where Hollander won.
|
@chloeloeloe: 16. Cens’ social media manager (who also fosters and rescues stray dogs), Harris Drover, posted a photo of a newly rescued pup. Rozanov immediately jumped on his comments to at the very least see the pup. Harris then comments “ok well you guys can come over”. A few users pointed out that this is a weird turn of phrase but most just shrugged at it.
|
@chloeloeloe: 17. This morning, Harris posted a photo of the pup, Anya, with Hollander and Rozanov. This was then followed by the two posting their own photos of Anya. And well…listen. Even I, one who promised to be neutral and simply report, found the photos to be uhmmm more intimate than you would for ‘friends’.

I’ve already been accused of having nothing better to do before so you know what? I’m gonna do that even harder. Here’s an analysis of MLH players who have liked Shane’s and Ilya’s posts since January. Notice who’s there? Notice who’s not?
[link to a file]
|
@shaneshine24: The stats are wild. The Cens are here, some of the Raiders, New York, each team pretty much got a good percentage of reps but…
|
@mildred: You’re crazy but this is damning. Apart from JJ and Hayden, not one single Metro has been interacting with Shane???
↳@seriouslyserious: oh this goes deeper: check out the games since January. Unless absolutely necessary, they won’t pass at all to Hollander. It’s cost them a few games so far.
↳↳@mildred: Or are the metros just having a rough year?
↳↳↳@seriouslyserious: Nah. Check out the game against Winnipeg back in late February. Metros won 2-1 but this could have easily been 2-0 or 3-1 had Gagnon passed to Hollander, who was wide open by the way, instead of passing to Favreau who was being dogged by both Fonzi and Jameson the whole first period.
↳↳↳↳@mildred: Damn. You’re going to make me fall into a rabbit hole.
↳↳↳↳↳@hockeygurlz: Why go to Winnipeg all the way back in late February when you can check out their game against New Jersey just last week when the Metros lost 3-1. Twice Comeau could have passed to Hollander even the announcers commented on it. He instead tried to bring it all the way but got knocked by Simonsen first and then missed the goal by a mile the second time. Hollander was right there both times. Stupid.
↳↳↳↳↳↳@hollaatyourander: Stupid alright, us fans in the stands booed him so loud. I swear to god if they’re being like this just because of a few rumours, heads will roll.
Mia wants to play hockey @getthepuck
Saw a comment about the Metros possibly not passing to Hollander unless necessary since January and it might all be because of rumours about his sexuality and possible relationship with Rozanov. Well first of all, I can’t believe that a bunch of professional hockey players who get paid a minimum of 900k AAV would let a rumour affect how they play. Get your shit together and play well.
|
@getthepuck: Second, who the fuck cares if Hollander is not straight??? That’s still Shane motherfucking Hollander. He is a free agent at the end of this season and I can speak for the rest of the Metros fans when I say WE ARE STRESSED that he hasn’t re-signed yet! If this is causing Hollander to think of leaving and another team gets him at the end??? I can’t stress enough how much red Montreal’s streets will be if this happens.
|
@getthepuck: Lastly, SO THE FUCK WHAT if he’s with Rozanov??? IT IS 2021!!! WHO CARES IF HOLLANDER IS WITH A MAN??? LET PEOPLE LOVE WHO THEY WANT TO LOVE!
|
@getthepuck: Again, and say it with me, that’s still SHANE MOTHERFUCKING HOLLANDER!!! He enters free agency this season and if he continues to be treated like shit within the Metros AND he’s with Rozanov??? Who, by all accounts, is well loved by his team and the whole of Ottawa that they’re very welcoming to the idea of their cap being happy no matter who he is with??? GUESS WHERE HOLLANDER WILL GO!
|
@getthepuck: Even if you don’t care for homosexuality (which is a whole other stink eye from me to you), I NEED YOU TO THINK: DO YOU WANT ROZANOV AND HOLLANDER IN ONE TEAM??? FOR FUCKING OTTAWA TO SWEEP FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE AND NO CUPS FOR ANYONE ELSE??? GET YOUR FUCKING SHIT TOGETHER METROS!

@BethMarch: it’s actually very fascinating from a PR POV. I think it also helps that Hollander and Rozanov are well-loved by a good chunk of hockey fanbases, especially their home team.
↳@naomicampbell7: right? because how is this not bigger news? And I’m surprised there isn't much backlash? Not that I’m hoping for one, just surprised there’s minimal and very quickly quashed. The MLH is very quiet, too.
↳↳@BethMarch: lbfr those two make the MLH very good money and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future – why do anything with their golden geese?
↳↳↳↳@naomicampbell7: True. Every Ottawa and Montreal game now are fully packed (MTL always yes but OTT’s audience grew recently) and I know people irl who went to check out hockey just because of the Hollanov of it all.
↳↳↳↳↳@BethMarch: sources do say that the Cens has put the pressure on the MLH regarding this. I don’t know what kind though, just that it’s obviously in favour of Roz.

WAIT those are the same rings we’ve been seeing on them since January right??? So they’ve been engaged since then???
|
@xxilyaxx: but this would mean they have been together before jan right? i mean, i dont see those two (hollander at least) going from bfs to fiancés in a short amount of time
↳@seriouslyserious: when would they even be together? im thinking when roz moved to ottawa and they got closer?
↳↳@xxilyaxx: well…when you put it that way, there’s still the question of why roz moved to ottawa. at the time, he said he’d like a new challenge but what if roz moved here for hollander?
↳↳↳@seriouslyserious: oh? well that’s an interesting theory? idk if i fully buy it but i see where you’re coming from. either way…around 2018 right? 🧐
↳↳↳↳@xxilyaxx: yeah around
Wholesome Twin @shanesfreckles
I remember in early January, literally four days after the plane incident, Hollander posted a quote from When Harry Met Sally. This quote to be exact: “I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.” Do you think they got engaged then? I mean the line is very much a marriage proposal.
|
@shaneshine24: hold on! i remember this and being shocked ‘cos hollander posted sth personal and then a few minutes later roz posted that he’s watching the same film…do you think?
|
@ilyasnips: woah woah woah the idea that they were already together during the Cens’ plane incident and then maybe Hollander being so scared of losing Roz that he proposed almost immediately after? oh god

@hockeygurlz: i have the sudden urge to hoard Metros Hollander jerseys 👀

Calvin Klein ✅ @calvinklein
👀🌈
[a teaser video, 10 seconds long: It was an empty room, with only some lighting equipment seen at a distance from the camera. A door can be heard opening and closing and then somebody comes into view. He can only be seen from the waist to his thighs and it is also revealed that he’s shirtless, wearing only white boxers. The white band of the boxers shows the words Calvin Klein in black, though some letters were hidden by his arms. “Here?” he asks. The camera then switches angles so the person is now in front of them. His waist to mid-thighs can also be seen but now the focus is on the middle of the band as it shows the word PRIDE written in rainbow colours. The camera zooms out, revealing a gray backdrop and white flooring. It also shows the rest of the person’s muscular upper body, showing black shoulder-length hair styled to look more trendy. Notably, another man is on the floor, lying down with his legs arranged so he can rest his arm on his knee while his other elbow is supporting his upper body weight. No faces but from what little can be seen, the other man is wearing black boxers and has a head of light brown curls. “Da,” the other man answers. Cut. The words ‘Calvin Klein’ shows in white on a black screen and, in all caps and bigger, PRIDE in rainbow colours beneath it. Smaller than the other two and in white, are the numbers 06.08.2021]

Any and every news about our favourite couple @ShaneandIlyaUpdates
🚨🚨it’s here it’s here it’s here!!!🚨🚨
[photos from Calvin Klein’s Instagram page
1: Shane and Ilya with their arms on each other’s shoulders as they smiled widely. Shane’s head was leaning on Ilya’s shoulder as he took the hem of Ilya’s shirt in his mouth. This caused Ilya’s abs to show. Shane is also holding the hem of his own shirt to showcase his abs. The rainbow-coloured, in gradient style, bands of their Calvin Klein underwear can be clearly seen above their jeans.
2: Ilya has his back turned to the camera but his face is turned to the side, giving the audience a lovely profile. He’s shirtless and his arms are up with one resting on his head. This showcased his muscular back, one that would be saved either by medical students or their professors and used to revise for identifying back muscles. The jeans he’s wearing has a CK stitching on the right pocket in rainbow colours.
3: A full body shot of Ilya who is, once again, shirtless. He’s wearing a white Calvin Klein short shorts with the CALVIN in bold and in rainbow colours running down the left leg. He’s holding a hockey stick in one hand while the other is on his waist adding to the sassy vibe of the photo. He’s wearing white shoes and long white socks and the words CK x Pride on each sock.
4: Shane, on the floor, in a Canadian tuxedo. The denim jacket is open, revealing he does not have a shirt under. The button of the jeans are undone and the zippers are unzipped, very daringly revealing skin in that area. In rainbow colours, the word Calvin is on the right chest area of the denim jacket and the word Klein is on the left.
5: Shane, wearing a white sleeveless shirt and white boxer briefs, laying on the floor, half-propped up on a beanbag chair. He’s looking at the camera, all sultry. The white sleeveless shirt has the big letters CK right smack in the middle of the chest and the words Calvin Klein are layered on top of the initials. The letters are embroidered in a rainbow-gradient effect.
6: Shane and Ilya, shirtless in a gym setting. Ilya is sitting down while Shane is behind him. Both are showing off their biceps and mean mugging the camera while the band of their Calvin Klein boxers can be seen peeking out of their jeans. Ilya’s bands are pink, purple, and blue while Shane’s is in rainbow.]

of course it’s all sold out 😭 but here are the other photos from the website!
[photos from Calvin Klein’s website
1: Ilya, in rainbow-striped boxer briefs, one foot halfway through a leg of the jeans he’s holding. The picture was sideways, showing the grooves and planes of his muscles and ass. He’s looking down at what he was doing, causing his curls to frame his face nicely.
2: Shane in that same shirtless white shirt and white boxer briefs, stretching, perfectly showing off his muscles.
3: Ilya, in a white denim jacket, white jeans, black shoes, and sunglasses. The jacket is open to reveal a black shirt with CK Pride in the middle of the chest in rainbow. One of his hands was on his waist to show off the top properly.
4: Shane, in a cream coloured light sweater, denim shorts, and stylish men’s sandals. The words PRIDE was embossed across the chest area, making it a perfect silhouette for the much smaller CK in the middle. His hands are in the pockets of the shorts.
5: Shane and Ilya in white baby tees. Both are wearing distressed cutoff denim shorts that ended a bit higher than mid-thigh but Shane’s is black while Ilya’s is in the regular blue ones. Ilya is wearing the CK white sneakers and non-descript white knee-length socks. Shane is wearing the black CK ankle-high combat boots. The baby tees have the expected brand name across its chest but is a silhouette against a box rainbow-gradient background on the chest. Shane is slightly in front of Ilya, arms crossed, solid stance and mean-mugging the camera. Ilya has one arm around Shane’s shoulders, his other hand’s thumb in one of his belt loops and his stance is more playful, emphasised by his face showing Rozanov: ragebaiter pro max on ice.]

Look, we’ll never know the full extent of what happens behind closed doors in this league but the fact that Shane “Mr I would like to retire as a Metro” Hollander LEFT? Something happened that can not be contained in those rooms anymore.
Christy ᜊ( ' ⩊ ' )ᜊ @christyyyy
okay take this with a grain of salt (i am) but i overheard a person who may or may not be from the MLH HQ talking. They’re unsurprised with the recent turn of events and apparently, have been told by Crowell to ‘be nicer’ to Hollander way back in 2018 and then again in February. Metros org didn’t listen so Crowell made it a point to be very very neutral about this.
|
@hockeygetinme: I call bs, no way is Crowell, guy who kicked out Baldwin and Lundin after they came out, okay with Hollander and Rozanov being part of the LGBTQIA+ community
↳@christyyyy: well with the way the talk was going, it seemed like Crowell wasn’t 100% enthusiastic about this either. more like ✨capitalism✨ talk to me
↳↳@hockeygetinme: yes this makes more sense
|
Elliott @eli2312012: overheard? yeah right you’re just making stuff up
↳@christyyyy: look, you don’t have to believe me but the MLH has an HQ here in Montreal and I may or may not be working near their offices
|
@BethMarch: ahhh i mentioned this before to another user here but basically whispers around me (idk how true and i have no way of checking) said Cens owners went to bat for Roz and Hollander that pretty much convinced Crowell to back tf up. no idea about their ulterior motives but if it got us here, then im happy lols

Shane Hollander ✅ @shanehollanderhockeyplayer
Montreal, you have opened your arms to me as a wide-eyed 18-year-old kid, eager to get on the ice and sink his first goal in the net. It wasn’t always easy but it had never been hard to love you. Your passion fuelled me on days I was running on fumes and I hope the results over the years were enough to even measure up to an ounce of the support you have given me.
It was not an easy decision – if you asked that 18-year-old what his plans were, he would say, with conviction, that he will retire as a Metro. And that has been true over the years. But chapters, unfortunately, come to an end so that we may open to a new one.
As I embark on this new chapter of my life, I am excited to spend the rest of my life at home and with family, years after being apart. To wake up next to Ilya every morning, to regularly negotiate with Anya on her bath time, and to be closer to my parents who have always been there through thick and thin.
But it is with sadness that I am saying goodbye to Montreal. I will always look at the stands wistfully when I return as a guest starting next season. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
À tantôt, Montréal.

Okay but peep that line about “As I embark on this new chapter of my life, I am excited to spend the rest of my life at home and with family, years after being apart”. Is this an implication that he’s been with Rozanov for years?
|
@rahrahrozanov: I’m not sure about the implication you’re talking about but I think the consensus is that no way did they just start their relationship recently. There’s got to be at least a year they’ve been together before getting engaged. If we’re adding your theory, there’s got to be at least two years to make it plural…unless he’s only talking about his parents?

I just read Hollander’s statement and he said “wake up next to Ilya (!!!) every morning” and he said “new chapter”…they were engaged since January (that we know of? idk). Is the bigger implication here that they now have made it official and they are married now?
|
@shaneshine24: hold your horses! i see your point but maybe Roz has been considered family since the engagement? or since they got together? and the new chapter is a reference to the ottawa move?
Bailey is a 2481 shooter @hollanovsh00ter
“As I embark on this new chapter of my life, I am excited to spend the rest of my life at home and with family, years after being apart. To wake up next to Ilya every morning, to regularly negotiate with Anya on her bath time, and to be closer to my parents who have always been there through thick and thin” DON’T TOUCH ME IM FRAGILE RN!

Shane + Ilya @24811434ever
All I’m hearing is that there’s a possibility that Shane and Ilya got married this summer and none of us knew about it!

@xxilyaxx: They saw Varley be sneaky and copied the moves
↳@mildred: once again: Varley was not being sneaky. We all just didn’t pay attention to one of the hottest couples unfolding before our very eyes!

ASDF G. HJKL the third @asdfghjklIII
A more pressing issue is what will their last names be on the ice? Imagine the announcers keep saying Hollander-Rozanov over and over again?
|
@rahrahrozanov: Both of them score and assist so fast, the announcers won’t even get to finish saying their full name before the play is moving on…
↳@CensCensCens: we prayed for the rest of the league for the next season when the true victims are the announcers trying to keep up with the play AND saying hollander-rozanov over and over 😔

@hollanovdefenseattorney: you are so right, these are the things we should be thinking about Mx. HJKL The Third

Anon follower send-in: Caught up with Barrett (OTT) as hockey camp ends and asked who will be in the wedding party for Hollanov. Dude just looked at me and said “Will be? The wedding already happened! You guys missed it.” Boyfriend Harris (OTT Comms) comes out of the building just in time to hear what Barrett said, laughed, and dragged him away.

Lots of Hollanov send-ins for this week!
|
Anon follower send-in 1: Ran into Boodram (OTT - A) while on a holiday in Italy (his kid’s so cute btw and his wife’s so hot 🥵) and asked about the Hollanov wedding: Oh yeah, it’s already happened. It’s an intimate wedding and just full of love! I just wished there were chairs.
|
Anon follower send-in 2: Hiking the Swiss Alps and who do I run into at a rest stop but Luca Haas (OTT)! Dude’s super nice and gamely talked to me and my friend about last season. Finally got the courage towards the end to ask about the Hollanov wedding and he showed me a couple of drawings he did: one of the grooms exchanging vows and the other was of Anya with a princess tiara on her cute head, being hugged by kids (Pike’s?). Did not take photos of the drawings because those are obviously private and we were lucky enough to even have a glimpse but the wedding happened y’all!!! And from Haas’ sketches, it was absolutely beautiful!
|
Anon follower send-in 3: I live in the same town as Boiziau’s (MTL) parents and he was here a week ago to spend time with them. Kept seeing him around town grabbing coffee and running errands. Finally got the nerve to chat with him when it took the new barista a while to get our coffee orders made one morning. Dude’s genuinely funny and a riot. Then, I asked about Varley and he thought everyone missing it because they were so distracted with Hollanov was so funny. Even Varley thought the whole thing was strange: here they were hard launching and no one…cared? Anyway, then I asked about THE wedding and he said it’s so beautiful, people cried during the vows. He told me to tell everyone that Pike (MTL - A) cried the most and not him, no matter what Pike says.

Chloe Bates 𐔌՞. .՞𐦯 @chloeloeloe
what is that about no chairs at the Hollanov wedding??? where the heck did they get married???
|
@hollanovnation: i absolutely refuse to think a venue would just…forget about the chairs? do you think they got married at home???
↳@chloeloeloe: the idea that these two are so jock-coded they didn’t think about chairs for their wedding is sending me.
↳↳@shaneshine24: they obviously got married this summer and it was a hot summer here in ottawa this year so imagine you’re sweating buckets in a suit on a hot summer day and there were no chairs??? idc if this is THE hockey wedding of the year im going home 😩
Shane said hi to me that one time @hollaatyourander
all those millions and no chairs
Been giving and now I get to receive @cens12345
why am i seeing all these run-ins with the Cens lol. I live in Ottawa and just when I’m desperate to ask one of them about THEEEE wedding, no one is around me!

Some Varley in this week’s batch!

Anon follower send-in #1: Spotted #Varley here in Curaçao! Didn’t want to take photos as they’re obviously having their private time but they’re so in love 😍
|
Anon follower send-in #2: Was at the airport going back to Boston and Marleau (BOS - A) was seated next to me. Asked him about his thoughts on the Varley ship name and he was cool with it but did ask why couldn’t it be Marleaughn or Clifter? Told him I’d workshop it with the Internet and he just laughed.

@asdfghjkl12345678: or marleaughn or clifter…
↳@OTTeroos: i love those two and me, the originator of Varley, will even stop calling them that if they wish. BUT!!! if they ask me to call them clifter………………
LIVe as a fangirl @livlaughlove
im still wondering how those two started

@c_vaughny: well i’ll tell you
↳@livlaughlove:

↳↳@c_vaughny: met at ASW properly for the first time and there were sparks for sure. Sat across Rozanov and Hollander as they bickered like an old married couple (a select few of us knew about them at this point…) Then, those two left us to do god knows what (spoiler alert: we know). The three of us ended up at a club where we got to dancing and uhhh the sparks got brighter. Left Boiziau to his flirting and well we’re here now 😀
↳↳↳@boiziau16: 🤨 is ‘sparks got brighter’ the new codename for ‘we were grinding at each other and making out like teenagers’?
↳↳↳↳@cliffmarleau7: 🤫

Hockey News ✅ @hockeynews7
Ahead of the new season, Diana Tremblay-Wong sat down with Shane Hollander to discuss what he will miss most in Montreal, what he’s most looking forward to now that he’s in Ottawa, and what he hopes for his legacy. Watch the teaser below and don’t forget to tune in to Diana’s Take on Monday at 8:00 p.m. (ET) only on Hockey News Channel 7.
[video: Shane is sitting across from a journalist who is maybe ten to fifteen years older than him. They’re in a famous Ottawa family restaurant, sitting at a booth with the restaurant’s bestsellers in front of them. As his hand was on the table, a gold band can be seen on his ring finger. The video’s vibe is light and hopeful.
Diana: And for the first time, you are now in a team with your husband.
Shane: (chuckles) I mean the All-Star Game in 2017 was the first time Ilya and I were in a team together. It was exhilarating – we knew each other so well that we didn't have to think much where the other was on the ice – and I’ve never forgotten the feeling. But you’re right, this is the first time my husband and I are playing with and not against each other.]
*******
Shane + Ilya @24811434ever
MARRIED! THEY ARE MARRIED!
Bailey is a 2481 shooter @hollanovsh00ter
lmaooo the parallel of Rozanov casually saying they were boyfriends back in March and Hollander saying they are now husbands is doing things to my brain that i cant even describe.
LIVe as a fangirl @livlaughlove
2017??? hello????

@shaneshine24: i dont even think it started 2017. Hollander says “we knew other so well” by 2017…….so!!!

Luca Haas ✅@LucaHaas_OTT
With permission from the Hollander-Rozanovs 🥰
[scanned copy of his sketch from the wedding. It was black and white and the POV is from a few steps away but it is so detailed that the audience can see features clearly. The focus is obviously on the couple, standing in front of everyone.
Ilya, on the right, is facing Shane. The two were holding each other’s hands, gold bands made to look glinting. They were both smiling, the love in their eyes was perfectly captured, and tears were definitely involved from the grooms.
Behind them is a house that the audience can assume is theirs. In front of the artist’s POV are people standing around to witness the wedding. Not one eye is dry. They’re all standing on grass showing this is the backyard.]
