The Fic Writer's Guide to Life as a Pro Hockey Player by merrimack
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid, Men's Hockey RPF

Summary
I’ve been watching and reading about hockey for about 15 years, and when Heated Rivalry took off, I decided to put my mountain of saved links to good use. This guide is intended to give information about life as a professional hockey player, designed for fic writers who want to get the logistics right, from what Shane and Ilya's calendars look like to what their contracts say, and add realistic color to their Heated Rivalry or Hockey RPF fics.
This is not a "Hockey 101" for the game itself, as there are many other sources for that.
Contains some minor spoilers for The Long Game, but none for the major plot developments. I use "NHL" throughout, following Rachel's usage in the books.

Summary
"I'm calling it 'Adopt a Stray,'" Cliff announced, pacing the rug. "Tomorrow night. Boston vs. Montreal. We announce a new 'tradition.' We say that Boston has noticed that not every team is as close as ours. We say we’re looking for 'strays'—players who aren’t really accepted by their team, always seem an outcast, that need a little extra team bonding or whatever. And the first 'stray' we’re adopting? Is Shane Hollander."

Summary
Born the unwanted and unneccesary spare in the 'heir and a spare' equation and an omega, Peter Hale's life was destined to be that of a court decoration, useful for nothing except decorating his alpha lord's arm and producing heirs. When his betrothed died right before their wedding, the then fifteen year old Peter was left largely to his own devices, considered unlucky to add to the rest.
Peter being Peter, he made the most of it. Now, nearly two decades later, he's a decorated soldier, leader of an elite combat team, a scholar, and an advisor on his sister's, the Queen's, counsel.
But as their queendom enters it's fifth year of a long, drawn out war, their people are displaced and hungry, and they're backed into a tight spot, in need of strong allies and aid. Their neighboring kingdom is the aid they need, and the heir to the throne is a young, unwed alpha- and there's only one unwed omega in the royal line left. Peter is once again engaged. He supposes he'll just have to make the most of it, once more.
