Summary:
It's the 2020-2021 season. Ottawa Centaurs forward Derek Briggs, an undrafted player from the Swedish Hockey League, is having a fantastic rookie season. He makes the team out of camp, claws his way up to the second line, lives through an almost plane crash, and has a crush on his fellow rookie that just might be reciprocated. The Centaurs might even make the playoffs.
Then, news breaks that Shane Hollander is suing the Metros and MLH for terminating his contract after he came out to them in 2017. Derek, who played with Shane in Sweden after he was forced out of Montreal, gets a lot more popular for all the wrong reasons. The media seems to think he's the secret hockey player Hollander's dating, Crowell is breathing down his neck, and all of a sudden, Centaurs captain Ilya Rozanov has it out for him.
Notes:
If you haven't, look up the Swedish Hockey League's pride jerseys. They're incredible.
Regarding timeline: Shane's relationship with Rose unfolds the way it does on screen, but Ilya's father dies right before All-Star Weekend 2017. Shane decides be brave and come out, starting with Metros management that spring. The Metros organization makes it clear that they will not be the league's trailblazer for queer players and terminate his contract. Not long after, the Admirals lose in game seven. Shane goes to Wimbleton with his parents in June, and meets the CEO of the Swedish Hockey League and winds up moving to Europe.
