I like to think there is an interview of the Centaurs where they ask who is the funniest on the team and a lot of them say Shane. It surprises the fans, all they know is the meticulate, media trained hockey-Robot-Hollander.
But really, Shane lives to chirp, mostly at his husband. He loves teasing the rookies, because it helps them see him as a teammate and less as hockey-god-Hollander, which is better for the team's dynamic. He loves bitching about the reporters and their dumbass question.
Just a thought about Shane feeling so welcomed and safe with the centaurs that he's comfortable being his authentic sarcastic little self. More than that, the cens actually took the step to UNDERSTAND HIM, to know him truly and now they get his humour. The metros never got to know him like that (and it's their loss).
