Ilya and Shane 100% retire at the same time. Shane probably feels bad leaving the Centaurs completely out to dry, but at that point there's like ten years worth of hollonov raised rookies on the team so they're still the best team in the league, even without them. and Shane obviously would not retire before Ilya, but Ilya also could not retire before Shane. like Ilya's whole thing with hockey is that it's a way to play and it's a way to play with/against Shane specifically, and he already almost completely wilted like an unwatered plant during the early Centaur years cause his then shitty team couldn't fully go head-to-head against Shane, imagine how much worse it would be if he didn't have the option to play with Shane at all š you're killing him! so the only solution is they retire together, in the same year, after a career of equal length, and ride off into the sunset to coach two teams at their hockey camps just so they can pit those poor kids against each other and compete for the title of best coach. the end
THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING!!
