   Summary

   MORGENSTERN: This is a bit unconventional, but I think I speak for all of us when I say we wanted the chance to talk to both of you at once. Starting with you, Shane—you scored the game-winning goal with only a minute left on the clock. Are you dedicating your win tonight to anyone?

   HOLLANDER: Yeah, I guess my parents. It's nice that they made the trip. But the win was a team effort, and I'm sure the other guys who put some points on the board are dedicating the win to their families.

   MORGENSTERN: And Ilya, you might've lost, but you scored a hat trick tonight! Want to dedicate that to anyone?

   ROZANOV: Also Hollander's parents.
   ----

   It's Ilya's last season in Boston. Yuna and David start wearing Rozanov jerseys to games. Shane and Ilya decide they don't need to play into the rivalry anymore. Journalists are scrambling. Hollanov Twitter is going up in flames. It's not a long game if you play it fast enough.
