Hock-Tea😈 @HockTeaGossip

Anonymous sources say Shane Hollander didn’t just leave the Montreal Metros—he was pushed out, citing issues of “loyalty.” Read More:

↳No It IS That Serious 🏒 @hockeyismylife46

Shane is loyal to WINNING tf 😭

↳Anya’s secret sister @allaboutthepuck

So we’re all getting the vibe that the Metros traded their star player after finding out he’d been in a decade-long relationship with his sworn rival, right? And that it was the homophobia right??????

↳↳Hollander’s #1 Girl @allabout24

I just wanna know if it was a “conflict of interest” when he was winning them trophies?

↳Jelly Belly @gearheadbi

Imagine you’re literally the best on your team and some BUM ASS LOSER has the audacity to call you disloyal

Video Transcript From TikTok

[Influencer Jerimiah Rollins is sitting at his kitchen table wearing a Montreal Metros jersey.]

Rollins: (smiling ominously) Good morning. (Speaking quickly) Goodmorninggoodmorninggoodmorning

Rollins: (laughter) I wake up this morning. The birds are chirping. I’m in a good mood because my team's playing tonight (smiles widely). I was born a Metros fan, and I’m gonna die a Metros fan, yaknow? Through the good and the bad (laughs, looking off to the side).

Rollins: (sighs and gestures broadly with his hands) And it's been a rough year! Rough season start! Lookin a lil shaky! Lil shakey, ya know what I mean??

Rollins: (shrugs) But I'm like, “it’s cool. It’s cool!!!” We gon get it together!

Rollins: (deep inhale)

Rollins: (shouting) So! Imagine my surprise! When I log on to the bird app this morning, and I see my GOAT Shane Hollander talking 'bout….”my moon” and “it's always been us”….always? Like always always?? Like whole time always?? Like all three cups always??

Rollins: (quieter, speaking voice) And then I got to thinkin….that trippin’ story never made sense to me. Not my GOAT! Throwing games? Number 2 draft pick Shane Hollander? Fastest skater in the league?? The captain of captains??

Rollins: My GOAT trips one time, and all of a sudden, everyone goes crazy. Mind you, he probably tripped because he was carrying the weight of some of the most useless fucking (yelling) bozos—

Rollins: (deep inhale) Lemme not get distracted, y’all know my blood pressure bad.

Rollins: (deep breath)

Rollins: (speaking softly) So why am I hearing that the real reason they traded my GOAT was homophobia?? Homophobia?? Is winning games gay now? Somebody gotta explain that one to me.

Rollins: (Getting louder) Y’all kicked my goat off the team for what? For what??? ‘Cause he suck a lil dick??? (yelling) I don't know, maybe more of the Metros need to suck a lil dick so they can put some goddam points on the board!!!

Rollins: (yelling at the top of his lungs) Shits embarrassing!! Fuck!! We could've had a dynasty, and y’all gave that shit to the Russian terrorist in Ottawa! Imma be sick the rest of my life!! I ain't ever seen no shit like this!!

[Video ends.]

Chapter Notes

Complex Sports @ComplexSports

Montreal Metros fans are demanding answers as rumors swirl, re-igniting intrigue regarding the sudden and dramatic departure of former captain, Shane Hollander. Reports of locker room tensions and alleged discrimination continue to run amok. The MHL has yet to comment. Read More:

MHL Merch Tracker @MHLMerchTracker

Notable spike in the sale of Ottawa Centaurs merch. Even more notable spike in the sale of Hollander jerseys. Now deemed “vintage” Hollander Metro’s jerseys are also seeing a spike in value.

↳Its Hole-ander actually @hollalujah

The borders of the HollaNation are CLOSED we are not accepting asylum seekers/refugees rn 🙅‍♀️

↳↳Boiziau’s Baby Mama @JJBrescueme

How very Trump-y of you for a Canadian

↳↳↳Its Hole-ander actually @hollalujah

Don't even play like that 😭 I'm just trying to make sure I get seats this season 

↳↳↳↳hollanov on top @itsashutout46

Exactlyyyyyy if you weren't in the online trenches with during #tripgate please go to the BACK of the ticket queue 

↳No It IS That Serious 🏒 @hockeyismylife46

If I go through your account and I see Hollander hate I bet NOT see you posted up at a Centaurs game 

↳↳Cents Stan @centsoncentsoncents

No merch, no meet and greets, don't even hit the concession stand !!!!!

↳↳↳Ex Montreal Stan @imonlyhereforhollander

Oh it’s strict around here

↳↳↳↳No It IS That Serious 🏒 @hockeyismylife46

Exactly keep it cute 😤

Cents and Centsability @goodgollymissmolly 

HollaNation rules for the newbies:

1. You cannot be a Shane Hollander fan and an Ilya Rozanov hater you WILL get jumped
2. We can't do ANYTHING about the shaydens. Don’t ask.
3. True HollaNation members NEVER disrespect our squad leader Rose Landry 

I’m watching you!!! Ex-Montreal fans, tread LIGHTLY.

Montreal Metros @MontrealMetros

The Montreal Metros Organization has become aware of the narrative currently dominating social media. We want to be clear: The Metros Organization is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion and to creating a safe and supportive space for all of our players. (1/2)

Montreal Metros @MontrealMetros

The decision to part ways was a mutual one between the Metros Organization and our former captain, Shane Hollander due to differing goals and shifting focus. We would, again, like to thank Mr. Hollander for his many years of dedication and sportsmanship and continue to wish him the best in all his future endeavors. (2/2)  

↳Ilya Rozanov-Hollander @realIlyaRozanov

Okay

↳↳Boston FTW @raidersforthwin

They let Roz outta phone jail 🤣

↳↳↳Shelly 🏒 @gearheadgirl  

@HarrisDrover @Real_ShaneHollander he’s escaped!!!

↳↳↳↳Boston FTW @raidersforthwin

Snitch!!

↳Its Hole-ander actually @hollalujah

Long ass statement yeah they did that shit 😒

↳No It IS That Serious 🏒 @hockeyismylife46

oh they did exactly what streets is saying they did, i fear 😬

↳↳Cents Stan @centsoncentsoncents

It’s giving guilty, your honor 🧑🏿‍⚖️

↳Anya’s secret sister @allaboutthepuck

Mama, a russian terminator behind you

Ex Montreal Stan @imonlyhereforhollander

Am i the only one that’s, like, actually really sad about this???? Shane gave the Metros a decade of his life and what did he get back?

↳Hollander’s #1 Girl @allabout24

I can’t even imagine how painful that must’ve been

↳↳Boiziau’s Baby Mama @JJBrescueme

Give it your all and the moment you want something for yourself….

Its Metros 4 Lyfe @montrealmetrosfan1996

So let me make sure I understand…we let Holzy walk….but kept Drapeau….the sieve

↳missing the Holz @metros4hollanov

Traded Hollander but kept the colander….I’ll see myself out lmao

↳Suffering Montreal Fan @gometrosgoiguess

Didn’t even make the playoffs last year, bruh 🚬🫩

Ex Montreal Stan @imonlyhereforhollander

Hey lets all play a game where we take turns jumping off a bridge theriault you go first 😊

Dream Girl 🌈@dreamgurlevul

Do we think he made the metros have gay thoughts?

↳let my cens fight @censgoaliestan 

That's the real reason they made him leave 🤭

Its Metros 4 Lyfe @montrealmetrosfan1996

Bruh what changed? We pretended Hollander didn’t exist at all last season and now—happy birthday wishes, people are saying they’re gonna do a fucking tribute night, and now we’re addressing rumors????? Hello????? Who are you and what have you done with my Metros????? Shits embarrassing! 

↳ally 🏒 @allywallypally

Lmao he won the cup. Again. 

↳↳Cents and Centsability @goodgollymissmolly 

That’s literally it lmao. I have a hookup that works events for owners and they said errbody mad. Owners mad. Front office mad. Errbody just MAD. They really bought the trip story and believed Holzy would burn out once he left but… 🤷 people are on the chopping block for letting him walk. Doesn’t help that all of this makes them look CRAZY

↳↳↳Suffering Montreal Fan @gometrosgoiguess

It’s real hard to spin that decision as anything other than homophobia/racism at this point. Hollander makes one mistake and he’s out but all the other (read yt) low performers get to stay

↳↳↳↳Ex Montreal Stan @imonlyhereforhollander

They also don’t have Holzy to hide behind anymore

↳↳↳↳↳Hollander’s #1 Girl @allabout24

that part

↳↳↳↳Hollander’s #1 Girl @allabout24

And it probably don’t help that Shane's playing better and looks happier. Makes the metros look like a gulog 

↳missing the Holz @metros4hollanov

Metros needed to prove they made the right choice. They couldn’t. Now they have to figure out how to clean up the mess.

↳Hollander’s #1 Girl @allabout24

Shane won’t say it but last season proved how unbalanced that situation actually was. It was never the metros. It was always Shane.

↳↳hollanov on top @itsashutout46

Can’t say his time with the metros was a fluke. Can’t say last season with the cens was a fluke. Can’t say that hatty from last night was fluke. He IS that good.

↳↳↳hollanov on top @itsashutout46

I’m ctfu not @realIlyaRozanov liking this tweet 😂

↳↳↳↳No It IS That Serious 🏒 @hockeyismylife46

And my man thank you to my man - Ilya Rozanov probably 

No It IS That Serious 🏒 @hockeyismylife46

Imagine doing all that after #tripgate…subbing in the press….pretending he never played for them…just to be right back to begging for his attention….must be tuesday

↳Anya’s secret sister @allaboutthepuck

Lmao monday I’m overrated, tuesday on my 🍆
