    Summary

    Lachlan Pucey joins the Montreal Metros as a rookie with all eyes on him. After a year spent in the AHL, developing and preparing for his NHL debut, he's not going to let anything distract him from playing the best hockey he can and proving to everyone watching that he's just as good of a player as his old man was and his big brother is.

    Hank Crawford is a second round draft pick that comes into the league after two years playing the college circuit. He's got no one's expectations to live up to save for his own, but there's a lot riding on him making a name for himself in Montreal. It's the best day of his life when Shane Hollander calls to invite him to training camp in September, bar none.

    Lachlan and Crawford are fast friends. Hard not to be when they have so much in common, when it's so easy to kill an afternoon hanging out and playing video games beside each other on the couch. When it starts to feel like the only deep breaths they're able to take are the ones they take when they're side by side, on the ice or at home or out in the city.

    They're fast friends. Good friends. Best friends. That's all they can be; hockey is everything else.

    Summary

    “Oh my god,” Hollander squeaks suddenly.

    Ilya freezes. “…What.”

    Hollander is staring downward. “Are you hard?” His voice is higher, not like the monotone that he's gotten used to.

    Ilya instinctively steps back and glances down. Fuck. Yes. Very. He exhales heavily. This is unfortunate. He’s not mortified—he’s never been ashamed of his sex drive—but this situation could easily become awkward and borderline predatory.

    ***

    Or, Ilya Rozanov is a legend, one of the greats of hockey, and the new head coach of the Boston Raiders, and his life is derailed by Shane Hollander, the 19-year-old genius rookie from Montreal.

    Summary

    That information, in and of itself, was enough to rock at least the hockey world. There had never been a publicly out player before, and Shane Hollander, straight-laced, always controlled, golden boy, would not be anyone's first guess as the resident queer player.

    But it got so much worse. It was clear Shane had ended things with Derek, if only because of the level of vitriol in the article. It talked about them meeting. About secret dates. About Shane refusing to come out of the closet, causing Derek "extreme emotional damage."

    And then it talked about the sex. Not just that Shane liked to be the bottom, but what exactly he liked. Derek accused Shane of being "almost frigid" until they had introduced kink into their relationship. The kink was a BDSM relationship where Shane was very much the sub. Derek maintained he hadn't really been into it (there were more accusations here of the damage this had done, implying that Shane had somehow forced the man into being a Dom).

    Or: When Shane is horribly (like really horribly) outed, Ilya, who is playing in Russia, gets traded to his team, the Boston Raiders.

    Summary

    “What hospital are we going to?”

    “Shane,” this voice belongs to Coach Theriault. “I understand that you’re concerned for your friend but a game still needs to be played and Rozanov has to get—”

    “I’m his husband!” Shane explodes. “I wouldn’t be playing regardless because the hospital will be calling me the moment he lands there because I am his next of kin, so with all due respect Coach, get out of my way because I’m going with him.”

    Things get dead silent and Ilya wishes he could find out what else is going on, but that’s the moment his concussion decides to win the battle because everything fades away and goes black.

    -

    Or: Shane and Ilya have been married in secret for months. And that all blows up when Ilya gets injured during a game.
