Ilya was a figure skater until Irina died.
He had too much anger to let go and he switched to hockey.
He gets into fights all the time.
He also is the most agile hockey player in the league.
He can jump over other players and land in a beautiful way no one else can without falling. He can spin over himself without getting disoriented and keeps playing as if nothing happened.
Nobody in the league knows his past in figure skating.
At the cottage Ilya talks about Irina and the sport they both loved.
Shane puts an old photo of Ilya figure skating in their room when they move in together.
