Sam: Like during a face off play? Ilya: Da! Exactly. During face off. Because hockey! Molodets! Sam: Okay, um. I guess I should be writing this down? Ilya decides to take matters in his own hands when he realizes he won't see Shane until October, and orchestrates a little commercial shoot with their new sponsor.
