    Summary

    “Do you think you can love two people at once?” Shane asked his mom in a moment of weakness, when they were wrapping up a call about a prospective brand deal. He should have been on his laptop looking at numbers on spreadsheets and coordinating his calendar which was already so full he could tell you exactly what he would be doing half a year from now down to the half hour. Instead, he was laying on his bed with his phone pressed up against his ear and his eyes closed counting imaginary stars in a bright night sky. He should go to sleep soon.

    Or, Shane embarks on casual sex with yet another Russian.

    Summary

    Ilya wrings out his shirt and tries to swallow the humilation burning at the back of his throat. "It is very funny," he says, flatly. "I am enjoying these jokes. I love to pay damages at every hotel. Is good for your poor sad American economy."

    "They do it to everyone," Price repeats, as if Ilya is just anybody and that makes it ok.

    Or: Ilya's rookie season costs more than expected.

    Sooooo good

    "There's no such thing as order, Ilya thinks about telling him.

    There is only endless chasing and pushing and hoping and deflecting and knowing how to roll with the punches when you have to. There is only weaving too quicky to get hit, ducking from one crisis to another smoothly enough that no-one realises that's what they are. There is only chaos and you have to eat it; all you can do is swallow and scheme and hope for the occasional, temporary ally."

    Summary

    No one knows why some people have magic, but it's never so big that it makes a real difference—just small, practical things, making life a little smoother.

    Still. Shane would rather have his magic be something like Rozanov's, instead of about his fucking socks.

    Summary

    JJ didn't think the others saw it. Hayden, maybe, but Jackie was the only WAGs's name Shane had committed to memory so Hayden never brought it up. JJ didn't have a wife or girlfriend. He had his hookups and the names of the best restaurants in each city they player in. If JJ had a dog, Shane would probably mix its name up with Drapeau's. The others didn't get that however pathetic or sad they might think Shane, Shane thought the same of them tenfold when they missed shots at practice or ate fast food on weekdays. Shane wasn't being prissy or funny when he said, don't embarass me—JJ still doesn't know exactly what it was, but he doesn't care to find out.

    Shane had poured everything into his team (possessively: it was his team) and he asked them to give it back that day, so they delivered. When Shane smiled at them afterwards, it felt like love.

    Character study on neurotic batshit hardass Captain Shane Hollander. The awe-inspiring and aloof Canadian Hockey Jesus Shane Hollander. Unwilling MLH sex icon Shane Hollander, the face on many mens' dart boards.

    or, JJ on the enigma of (his feelings for) Shane Hollander over the years.
