“You are in bathroom now having panic attack, calling your boyfriend because you just told journalist you are gay?”
“Fuck you, Ilya,” Shane scoffed.
“I am just making sure I understand the situation. Okay, okay, you just go out and say you misspoke. You meant to say that you are… gray.”
“I’m not a fucking paint sample.”
“Maybe you said that you pray?”
“I definitely did not say I pray. Also, I’m not religious.”
“You're not?”
“Ilya, can you fucking focus?”****
When Yuna books Shane a sit-down interview with GQ, she has no idea she's about to derail the carefully laid ten-year plan Shane and his secret boyfriend had only just begun to build. Shane never realized how exhausting the secret had become until it slipped out. Suddenly, telling the truth felt just a little more bearable than forcing himself back into hiding.This is a story about bravery. About being scared and doing it anyway. About being too exhausted to keep lying. About deciding which truths are finally safe to share, and which must still be protected while real danger remains.

Refusing to let Ilya ruin his career by signing with Ottawa, Shane chooses to really give their relationship a try and moves to Boston to live with Ilya and become a Raider. What follows is enough public scrutiny and backlash from his team that it has him questioning if he made the right decision. Until moments with Ilya and the Raiders show him exactly why he chose correctly. --- Hayden’s eyes flickered to Shane as he sat on the bench, chewing on the edge of his mouth guard. “Don’t fucking look at him,” Ilya insisted as he bent down for the faceoff. “Excuse me?” Hayden mumbled, eyes darting back to him. “You heard me,” he retorted, his tone clipped. “He’s not your teammate anymore; he’s mine. If you think Marlow is a problem to your game, wait until you see what I will do to your team if you hurt anyone on mine again.” Hayden scoffed, dipping his head as he tried to focus on the game. Something about Ilya’s words still rang through his head though, sounding so definitive that he didn’t want to risk seeing what he was actually referring to when he said that. The puck dropped again, and Ilya stole it before he could comprehend how quickly it happened.

The pounding on the door is what jolts Shane awake. Instinctively he tries to jump to his feet and rush to get it, but a heavy weight around his torso and on top of his legs prevents him from moving. As consciousness slowly returns to him, breaking through the haze of his hangover—and possible still-drunken state—he realizes that he is being held by Rozanov. “Shane Hollander, open the door, now!” “Oh my god, oh my fucking god. Jesus fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fucking hell. That is my fucking mother.” OR After getting drunk at the 2016 NHL Awards, Shane Hollander wakes up married to Ilya Rozanov

“...oh,” his mom says. “Oh, honey, you were seeing someone? You never said anything.”
“It’s-it’s complicated.” He catches the present tense too fucking late to do anything about it, and he barely resists the urge to either groan or slip forward to start beating his head against the coffee table.
Fuck his fucking life.
“You’re still…seeing this person?” His mom asks, and the amount of control he can hear her exerting is almost painful. “Who is-”
“Yuna,” his dad cuts in, voice quiet, “maybe give him a second, yeah?”
Yeah, Shane agrees in his head. Give him a second.
Maybe give him a decade while they’re at it.
(when shane's old fake id falls out of his wallet around his parents, he has to explain that it was to book hotel rooms before he was 21)
(...and then he has to explain why he needed to book those hotel rooms in the first place)

Nice Men in Montreal by canadawettt
Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
2026-04-09
Shane makes a list: reasons to Come Out on one side and to Stay Safe on the other. It's definitely not meant to accidentally star in the background of his mom's Instagram post for fans to find. But now that the world knows, maybe Shane can finally let himself have everything he's wanted. If only Ilya didn't go out and get engaged the next day. Which is fine! Rozanov was settling down? Shane could settle down, too. He would find himself a nice man.

When a poorly timed phone call and an open window leads Shane's parents to a massive misunderstanding, he's stuck pretending he's still dating Rose. Which works fine for a month, until Ilya's jealousy starts to flare and Shane's parents witness a fight entirely different from the one they have on the ice.

"See? Shane's probably just in the kitchen,” Yuna murmured softly, putting her purse down on the side table beside the door. “Maybe he’s—”“Okay, you were maybe telling me the truth,” a voice suddenly called, cutting her off before she could finish her sentence. “At least partially.”
Yuna frowned, the deep, accented voice catching her off guard. Before she could piece together where she recognized the voice from, though, she saw Ilya Rozanov walking through her son’s apartment. He was barefoot, his hair slightly damp and his clothes casual. Sweatpants and a white T-shirt that clung to him after a shower.
From the kitchen, David heard his sons’ voice ring out, too. “What do you mean partially?” Shane responded, gesturing at his phone as Ilya showed him something on it. “That’s exactly what I told you.”

and that's the thing about illicit affairs by Anonymous

2026-03-21
Hayden Pike's POV of the Scott Hunter kiss, the phone call, Shane coming out, and eventually learning who Lily is.
Hayden watches the man who is climbing down to the ice. He sits up gingerly, careful not to wake the baby or Ruby. “Jacks?”
Jackie sits up immediately, bleary eyed, “What’s wrong?”
Hayden points to the TV, “Uh?”
“He just hopped the boards.”
Hayden’s transfixed as Scott leads the man onto the ice, spins around, and then they’re kissing. On live TV. Scott Hunter, Captain of the New York fucking Admirals is kissing a man on live TV.
“Well you don’t see that everyday. Pretty big night for hockey. And listen to the crowd, they’re loving this. Good for him. Good for Scott Hunter!”
Hayden tears his eyes away from the TV and looks at his wife. “Holy shit.”
“Swear jar, Daddy,” says Jade, already sliding off the couch to go play like the world hasn’t just tilted on its goddamn axis.
Jackie’s eyes are wide and filling with tears, “Oh my god. Oh my god.” She lets out a shaky laugh, “Oh my god. Hayden, Scott Hunter’s gay. Like Shane’s gay.”
Hayden stares at her, “What?”- Language:

headfirst into shallow pools by Anonymous
Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
2026-02-24
Shane returns from the showers to find the locker room far more animated than when he left it. Everyone has their phones out, and when he sees Shane coming, JJ says, “Câlisse, Hollander, about fucking time! Ilya Rozanov got caught kissing a man.”
After the tuna melt debacle, but before Rose, Ilya makes the reckless decision to go to a gay bar to take his mind off of Shane. When photographs get published, Shane has a realization and devises a plan: he's going to ask Ilya Rozanov to marry him.
Ilya's going through enough without things he can't have being dangled in front of him. He needs to figure out a different way to avoid going home, because eventually Shane Hollander will realize what Ilya already knows: Ilya isn't worth what Shane wants to do for him.
