"Happy Birthday, Shane Hollander!", Shane Hollander & Ilya Rozanov [Hudson Williams & Connor Storrie] from Heated Rivalry
May, 2026
A hastily edited and put together image for Shane's birthday! I can't image Shane is too happy about being put on show, even if the audience is only Ilya and Anya (and maybe his parents), but I feel like Ilya definitely enjoyed himself!
Please do not repost my work to other sites
you may have noticed that my blog is disorganized and thematically incoherent and my tag game is weaker by the day. this is commentary on the chaos of modern existence
i hope manners is the next cool trend
“what’s stopping you from-“ listen i am so so sleepy
dni if you have no whimsy and no joy for the miracles found within the mundane
I’m actually kinda fun once you get to know me (takes 3 to 4 years).
“make friends” who am i doctor franking stein
I've seen criticism of Heated Rivalry (both the book and tv show) for not showing enough of the rivalry between Ilya and Shane, especially since we get right to the heat.
I'd argue that it's not inconsistent or shallow writing, but an intentionally written conflict between how others perceive and talk about them vs how they actually are with each other.
When we see the media or the league play up the rivalry there's always a moment to counter it. The CCM commercial shoot tries to pose them in a stare down, but they break out laughing. The league tries pit them against each other at the all-star game and puts them in front of the press, but we get an endearing moment of Shane helping Ilya out with his language barrier. Even when they're competing against each for the first time in 2008, Shane takes the initiative to introduce himself outside the arena away from everyone else, despite the Canada vs Russia commentator starting to create the rivalry narrative.
Their friends and family also reinforce how much they hate each other and, in response, they cover up what they're actually feeling or experiencing. Hayden says "Shane hates Rozanov" just before we see Shane be happy for Rozanov's cup win.
Those around them also miss the fact that when they are competitive with each other, its not out of hate or anger, but joy and love. There is a mutual respect and understanding between them when it comes to winning and competing and they genuinely love playing against each other. It's not until they are on the outs in episode 4, that their performance goes down.
So, yes, they are not actually bitter rivals, despite their world claiming otherwise. That's the point.
i imagine the edits of shane hollander in the heated rivalry universe are like the edits i see of quinn hughes always staring blankly ahead on the bench
MM/DD/YYYY is a shite date format.
me switching between lmao, lol, haha, and keysmashing to keep my laughter fresh and fun
