Since Shane Hollander’s painful public outing, things clearly haven’t been right with the Voyageurs. Still, everyone is shocked when Shane gets himself traded to the Ottawa Centaurs.
Shane can’t completely explain it, to be honest, not in a way anyone else understands. He just knows this: he lost Ilya, lost the Voyageurs, lost his privacy and his choice. But hockey is still the love of Shane’s life. And he’s not going to lose that, too.

It’s the most famous cold case in hockey history. Up-and-coming Russian phenom Ilya Rozanov mysteriously vanishes the summer before his rookie season. Despite extensive police work, no trace of the young superstar is ever found.
Shane Hollander remembers Ilya Rozanov. Better than most. And now, several years retired and with two highly successful hockey biographies under his belt, he’s taking a crack at the mystery that’s haunted his own career with strings of what-ifs and memories revisited so often they’ve softened like old cotton.
Perhaps now, with the long eye of perspective between him and those memories, he can unravel the short lifetime of the man poised to become his biggest rival and best kept secret. Travelling to Russia he searches for stories and the answers they hold.
If only this damn dog that’s apparently a local cryptid would stop raiding his trash cans.
It has wandered this place for years. It knows every stream, every hill, every tree. Every pale, flat face in the place of straight lines. It does not know this face.But it remembers dark eyes and star-dots across the cheeks.
It cannot remember its own name.But it remembers him.

When You Call Me Baby I Hope I'm the Only One (ft. Boston Lily) by Anonymous
Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
2026-04-04
“Have you talked to her about it?”
Shane shook his head but otherwise didn’t make a sound.
Hayden set his beer down and used the hand that held the beer to rub his face as if that would give him some extra clarity to the situation.
“Do you want it to be more? It’s ok to want more, you know? Maybe she wants the same.”
Shane shook his head again. “Maybe. Yes. I don’t know. But I can’t.” He felt so stupid not knowing his own thoughts. Everything was starting to feel closed in again. It was getting harder for him to breathe.
---
Shane spirals after Rozanov calls him baby for the first time and gets love and support from the friend he knows he can count on. (And comes out on his own without needing Rose Landry.)
Set before the Tuna Melt Incident(™). Featuring a wise and mature Hayden, because he’s actually the one in a healthy, successful long-term relationship in canon.

Shane Hollander doesn’t take the hit from Cliff Marlow, and Ilya Rozanov ends their arrangement in 2017. Heartbroken, Shane tries to move on. He wins another Stanley Cup. He sleeps around. He’s fine. Until he is outed in photos leaked to the tabloids, clearly hooking up with a man.
The following season, Shane Hollander is traded to the Ottawa Centaurs. Shane fucking Hollander. The legend himself.
Suffice it to say, the Centaurs are a little intimidated, and Wyatt Hayes is man enough to admit it.
