    Summary

    At the 2022 MHL Awards, Scott Hunter does not sit with his teammates.

    Neither do Ilya Rozanov, Shane Hollander and Troy Barrett.

    It doesn’t take a doctorate to understand what they have in common at this stupid central table.

    (Or where dealing with the League’s endless bigotry is a never ending full-time job)

    Summary

    Something both Shane and Ilya understood about hockey, that many other players didn’t, was that what separated good players from the greats was the ability and willingness to plan and engage in psychological warfare.

    Shane and Ilya went about it in different ways but that didn’t change the fundamental truth: to be the best hockey player was to be ruthless.

    Summary

    Christ. All he wanted to do tonight was curl up with Jackie on the couch but somehow he was instead looking down the barrel of a night at Rozanov’s.

    Though… an evening of just him and Shane did sound really nice. Like how it used to be, back when Lily was just a mysterious girl in Shane’s phone, so far removed from anything real and tangible.

    “You sure he wouldn’t mind?” Hayden asked. Not that he really cared if Rozanov minded, but it was the polite thing to inquire.

    Besides, now Hayden was kind of curious to see the hole in which Rozanov inhabited. Maybe there’d be primitive cave drawings on the walls.

    ----
    or; hayden finds himself at ilya rozanov's for the night with shane, sans ilya. with every physical memento around the house and every trace of shane in the corners, it's abundantly clear that his best friend is disgustingly and all-consumingly loved by his boyfriend. hayden finally understands too just why shane loves him right back.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander ✅ @shanehollanderofficial 
    I’ve seen many publications over the years speculating on my own, and my husband’s, hockey stats and accolades in relation to our romantic relationship and when the public assumes it started. 

    We don’t owe this to anyone. But we’ve also been playing professional hockey for seventeen years and we’ve both run out of ahem, cares to give.

    On the right is a photograph from the behind the scenes of our joint CCM advertisement in July of 2010. This photo predates the hundreds of combined accomplishments listed on the left. 

    Oh, and it was also taken about six hours before our first kiss. 

    -----

    or; a year from retirement and out of fucks to give, shane reveals their timeline to twitter in response to the latest speculatory article on their relationship. hollanovs across the world rejoice, centaurs celebrate their beloved dads, and former teammates share the not-so-subtle clues they missed the first time.

    Summary

    “You know what, old man? Let’s call it what the fuck it is,” Shane said, growing louder. “Because when I signed with this team, ya know, when you were six years into your sad career already, you guys never had even dreamed of a fucking cup. You’re welcome, by the way, I got you four.”

    “Wow, real humble Hollzy,” Stedlund scoffed.

    “You’re gonna tell me I’m wrong?” Shane asked, indignantly. “That’s fine. You all better really enjoy your days with the cup because you’ll never fucking touch it again. I don’t really think I can say the same.”
