    Shane survives a plane crash that kills most of his team. Ilya's support and love ensures Shane also survives the aftermath

    Well paced, amazing story of epic length and all the feels

    Alright. Okay. He’s doing this. If he thinks about it, there could be worse places to come out than in a room full of people ready to scold him for a perceived use of a slur.

    Or: Ilya comes out to the Raiders. It takes Cliff Marlow some time, and many questions, but eventually he puts two and two together.

    SHANE: Lily.
    LILY: Hello
    SHANE: Dead to me.
    What the actual fuck?
    LILY: ??
    SHANE: what. The. Hell. Did. You. Do.
    LILY: ahh
    I am in trouble
    Yes?

     
    Or Ilya's teammates add "Jane" to the Boston WAG group chat in the height of their "no, we aren't falling in love, whatever do you mean" era (2014-2016-ish?).

    Summary

    “Why did you want me to meet you here today?” Shane asked. When he’d heard the request, he’d had the same thought as Jared. Was he trying to rub it in? One last chance to retaliate for a long ago rejection?

    Shane had almost made it to Rozanov’s room that night in the hotel in Toronto. But when the elevator doors opened, Shane’s feet had stayed glued to the ground.

    He’d been so afraid of ruining everything, only to have it ruined for him barely a year later.

     

    Shane does not hook up with Ilya in Toronto. Six years later, his hockey career is long over and he has found a new calling that puts his media training, and his pretty face, to good use.

    Consider this a remix of sorts.

    Summary

    The 2026 NHL Awards ceremony at the Four Seasons in Manhattan was supposed to be simple.
    The league posted polished photographs. Sponsors posted champagne ads. Analysts argued over advanced stats. Players smiled through interviews in expensive suits they’d never wear again.
    Then Shane Hollander disappeared into New York City at midnight, and by sunrise the entire internet had accidentally forced the NHL’s two biggest stars out of the closet.
