For years, their rivalry has been the perfect cover for something far more dangerous. Separate teams and conferences allowed them to hide their secret relationship behind hard hits, heated stares, and carefully managed media narratives. Being enemies was safe. Being teammates is not.
By the time Shane lands in Boston, the media frenzy is already in full swing, eager to see how the former rivals will coexist. Their first meeting in the Raiders’ locker room is charged and restrained — two men pretending they’ve never touched, shaking hands like strangers while the team watches.
On the ice, though, the problem becomes obvious. They play like they’ve always belonged together — instinctive, seamless, lethal. Teammates start noticing. The chemistry is too natural. Too practiced

Roz is out of his gear much faster than he usually is and he’s unlocking his phone with an urgency as if something were on fire. “Bro, you good?” Cliff asks while he’s still in the process of getting out of his own gear. Ilya looks up from his phone with a somewhat wild look in his eyes. “I cannot reach Jane.” Ilya says and there’s nearly no volume to it at all. It's more of a whisper than anything else. Cliff Marlow notices some things and connects some dots.

“Who is that?” Ilya asks, his body swaying closer to the door as if on instinct.
The knocking continues, and Shane does the only thing he can think to do right now with Ilya still holding onto him, a towel wrapped around his waist. It’s not his finest idea; it would probably rank similarly to I’m clearing my head.
Which Hayden didn’t give a fuck about, apparently.
He unhands himself from Ilya, sliding the closet door they’d just clattered into open. “Get in.”
“You are putting me back in the closet?” Ilya asks flatly, still standing there, still in a towel.
“You’re not out of the closet, that’s the point,” Shane grits out, gesturing him in impatiently.

but daddy i love him by Anonymous
Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
2026-02-22
“I told you. Hollander and I, we are in love. He is my hockey player.” Ilya wiggled his eyebrows at the joke, but couldn’t keep himself from watching Scott Hunter.
“Sure, Roz. You and Hollander are in love, want to get married, spend the rest of your lives playing hockey together.” When Ilya didn’t immediately reply to that very accurate statement, Hunter continued: “If you two are in love, I’m straight. That’s how likely that is.” He had laughed and skated away, though Ilya really hadn’t understood what was supposed to be funny about that.
Standing alone on the ice, the crowd slowly filing out of the rink, Ilya was faced with a startling realization: telling people may be harder than he thought.

Never Tell Me The Odds by Anonymous
Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
2026-02-22
The prologue picks up mid-book 6, but rather than Brad posting the video to Twitter he sends it directly to the Montreal Metros. In this universe, Shane and Ilya are not outed to the world, but Shane is still kicked off the Metros team and transfers to Ottawa.
This fic follows Shane and Ilyas first year as teammates, settling into their lives together after getting secretly married over the summer. In this timeline, Shane learns to heal from the wounds of being outed to his team, Shane and Ilya get to ease into being a full-time couple before being thrust into the spotlight, and they get to navigate coming out on their own terms.
After a decade of the world being too hard on them, I just really wanted my favorite husbands to find a soft place to land. While the road is still long and difficult, this AU is all about putting them back in control of how they want the world to see them. It also gives so many more hilarious opportunities to watch other characters react to them coming out.

But once he realizes that, he immediately knows that he can't come out. It would ruin his legacy.

but the fighter still remains by Anonymous
Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
2026-02-20
"He hates me." It was Rozanov's only reply, frail and desperate and entirely unbelieving. Scott couldn't help but scoff.
"No he doesn't." Rozanov kept his steely gaze trained on the ground, making a few attempts to speak before words actually found him.
"That is what he said?" His shaky words were a timid mix of devastated and hopeful, and Scott found himself fighting back watering eyes of his own.
"More than once." Scott confirmed. "Something tells me that you don't hate him, either." With that, the dam broke.
or:
Scott's still looking for his hotel room after talking to Shane Hollander. He finds Ilya Rozanov, instead.

I tried to hide the feeling (but it just won't go away) by Anonymous
Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
2026-02-18
"The league wants me to hate him. The fucking press wants me to hate him. My parents... I mean they do hate him." Shane stopped to take a few deep breaths, like he was trying to prepare himself for something.
"Hollander, you really don't have to tell me this-" Scott's frantic words were to no avail.
"I did hate him. Or like... at least I used to. I thought I did. Thought maybe that was why I couldn't stop looking at him, cause I hated him." He laughed once. A choppy, wet laugh that wasn't very funny at all. "I did hate him. But then he kissed me."

Scott Hunter goes looking for his hotel room. He finds a drunk Shane Hollander, instead.

“Were you sleeping with Rose Landry?” LeClaire asked, and Ilya felt his entire world flip upside down. Ilya scoffed and sank into the chair. He stared at his lap and, for a second, wished he could just say yes. It would have been easier. A simpler explanation. Something everyone else could swallow. “No,” he answered instead. “I was not sleeping with Landry.” Coach sighed, the weight of it settling uncomfortably in the office. “So it was Hollander, then.” Or Ilya gets called into his Coach's office after Rose and Shane start dating and an uncomfortable conversation takes place. Ilya realizes some things. Also he may need to stop reading his thesaurus.

Scotty Didn’t Know (but he sure does now) by Anonymous

“You have problem, you bring it to me,” Rozanov growled. “Not him. Me. I am not so easy of a target, not like boring Canadians. And you keep that shit off the ice. Chirping, yes, fine. Not that. Never that. You are older than the game of hockey, should understand difference by now.”
Canadians?
“Wait,” Scott said slowly. “Is this about what I said to Hollander the other day?”

do you want the house tour? by rachelrae
Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
2026-02-13
“Wow, this is absolutely stunning.” “I bet you say that to all the houses.” Ilya teased, shifting past him and moving back to his target: coffee. Stevie’s laugh was bright, “Sometimes, yes. But that is also one of the perks of the job. Getting to see so many beautiful houses. You had this designed, yes?” Ilya pushed the button for a flat white before he turned. “Yes. With my partner. He is much more into the whole real estate thing than I.” At those words, as if summoned, Shane appeared at the top of the stairs, a vibrating Anya at his side. Or Ilya gets invited to film a Youtube Video for Architectural Digest for his house in Ottawa and he decides not to hide the fact that someone else also lives here in the off season. He could have warned the camera team beforehand, but that would have taken all the fun out of the reveal.

“You have a message from: Lily.” The automated voice read out. Shane almost swerved into the other lane trying to press the mute button on the dashboard. ”Woah, eyes on the road, dude!” Hayden yelled. “Ayyy!” J.J cheered. “The famous Boston Lily! Let’s hear what she has to say.” The automated voice continued. “Can’t wait to have my [tongue emoji] in your [peach emoji].” (while shane is driving certain texts get read out by the car's bluetooth)
