    Conspiracy Busting by

    Summary

    Three years into playing together at Ottawa, Shane and Ilya are invited to take part in a video for buzzfeed all designed around debunking the biggest theories surrounding them, their relationship and promising not to hold anything back. It's safe to say the hockey world will not be the same again.

    Or:

    SH: Hello, I’m Shane Hollander, the greatest hockey player of all time. 
    IR: And I’m Ilya Rozanov, the actual best player of all time. 
    SH: 5 cups to your 3.
    IR: 800 goals to your 750.
    SH: I could go into assists but we need to finish the intro so hello everyone!
    SH: We’re here with Buzzfeed who have given us conspiracy theories to look at.
    IR: We’re going to prove them all wrong.

    Summary

    The picture is leaked on a random fucking Tuesday in November, months after Ilya was last in Montreal.

    Grainy and dark, enhanced digitally to shit but still just recognisable enough; Shane Hollander smiling dopily as a broad-shouldered man in a dark hoodie has him pushed up against a red brick wall, one knee lifted to hook around the back of a thigh, a large hand possessively holding it in place as the hooded figure has his face hidden in the crook of Hollander’s neck — presumably kissing him there, intimately.

    Ilya knows his team is good, and they do the best they can.

    The Best Captain Ever: Mic'd Up Ilya Rozanov by

    Summary

    When the idea is suggested to Harris, he dreads having to make the first one. It's tradition for the Captain of the team to do the guinea pig run of the social media trends they join.
    But Ilya is a loose canon on a good day.
    Giving him a mic might be giving him entirely too much power for Harris's sanity...and editing skills.

    Summary

    “Good, well then that brings me to the real topic of conversation.” Another sigh from Coach Wiebe, “As I’m sure you’ve already guessed, those highlighted names have been offered rookie contracts and they’ve each expressed interest in living with a vet for their first year.”

    Ilya felt his heart fall into his stomach, afraid of the next words to come out of his Coach’s mouth.

    “We asked the rookies who they’d like to live with and, well, LaPointe wanted to board with you, Chouinard. And Young with you, Bood,” Wiebe then turned to Ilya who had frozen on the spot, “And Roz, Haas wants to live with you.”

    Bood and Chouinard chuckled as they watched Ilya’s eyes widen in horror.

     

    OR

     

    Luca Haas was drafted 2nd overall by the Ottawa Centaurs in 2018. Two years later, he anxiously moved halfway across the world to play his rookie season with the team. He requested to live with Ilya Rozanov and they slowly became family.

    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov is nothing if not determined to walk each of the million steps to the plan Shane has come up with to bring them to their much sought-after Happily Ever After. Unfortunately for him, his reputation precedes him, and it's harder to integrate to his new team than he thought it would be. Maybe it's him, maybe only one Canadian was born with the misfortune of being able to love him, or maybe, he hopes, he just needs to give it more time.

    or

    A series of misunderstandings, a bar fight, a trip to jail, and outing oneself under duress, all in the name of love.

    Featuring Luca Haas' attempts to meddle, a healthy dose of Russian diminutives, and of course, the Scott Hunter of it all.
