my controversial hollanov take is that the two of them retire at exactly the same time. none of that ilya retires first to take care of the kids bs no sir. they retire at the same time. because both of them are just not interested in playing without the other to push them and the thought of doing long distance for even a week makes them start shaking crying screaming staring into the distance.

when this happened, i thought they gave him a mini version of ginger ale but this is actually normal sized and these are just the size of his hands

the whole boston team knowing about montreal jane and they think that ilya rozanov who can pull any girl he wants must have found a real baddie the way he keeps coming back for more and then hard cut to shane hollander on a friday night drinking tea and reading the same hockey book for the fourth time who when ilya texts him asking what are you wearing? texts back my new organic cotton pj set and ilya texts back i'm so hard tell me more

Big fan of the idea that centaurs Shane and Ilya are a devastating duo when it comes to chirping players they don’t like. Some homophobe from Toronto says their marriage isn’t real, so Shane gives a scathing review of faults the player didn’t even know he had, while Ilya is like this is why your wife left you and you can only see your kids every other weekend and some holidays. Bet last Christmas was lonely, huh? The rest of the centaurs are like ???? how tf do you even know that??? Troy Barrett sheds a single tear of joy knowing that he never has to play against them again. Next time they play Toronto that player won’t look them in the eye.

and i do think shane's best friends should both be men of color. next

nothing against rose, or shane's other friends, but i do think it's tired how people look at shane's move to ottawa..the biggest professional transition of his life, and the first real chance he's had to become more himself....and still insist his closest friend is either a white man buried under an expanding army of children or a white hollywood starlet who realistically facetimes him, what, once a month? other than giving him the push he needed, they don't actually have that much in common..

it's just so much more interesting to me that this period of self-actualization would also make him reckon with hey, i'm thirty now. i'm finally far enough removed from all the hazing & bullshit that came with being the Only One playing white-man hockey in the OHL/juniors/fuckass nowhere canada. why wouldn't that change the kinds of friendships he gravitates toward? why wouldn't he end up really close with this burly sweetheart trinidadian king who loves barbecuing & is an impressive first-line vet w zero hero worship of him, or maybe even rebuild things with jj who should be closer to shane than hayden all things considered...

i don't know. that version of shane feels a lot more compelling to me than pretending the emotional center of his life has to stay exactly where it was at twenty-three

being too warm during the day: well, this sucks, but this temperature makes sense because the sun is up, and the sun is making me warm. i am unhappy but logically i can deal with it for now.

being too warm at night: what if i kill everybody.

#myilya is the biggest gossip you’ve ever met. He is nosy, yappy, and an instigator. He is pretending he doesn’t know the story so he can get all the sides of it. He is blabbing on voice memos to Svetlana. He is deep in some teammate’s ex gf’s instagram, terrified of accidentally liking something. He is mad at Shane because Shane did not ask follow up questions when Yuna tells him David’s sister is getting a divorce. He is calling Yuna directly to ask follow up questions. When there was that tik tok trend of filming your friends reacting to gossip you’re telling them, he is experiencing a profound level of fomo. He is campaigning for a guest spot on Normal Gossip. This is a man who has never minded his business and I love that for him.

We may all have our own Shanes but at least we're united on one front: Shane Hollander scratches the fuck out of Ilya's back on the regular.

rewatching ep 2 and i truly do not know how anyone genuinely thinks shane was a bad or not well-liked captain. jackie says "cap's here!" and they all start chanting "cap". they're immediately asking him for the final say on whether that one guy's playoff beard stays or goes. when shane says ilya's the best, they immediately rush to correct him and assure him he's the best. they love him. they respect him. he's clearly good at what he does to command that kind of respect.

[gaynehollander]

It always baffles me when people think Shane would be constantly annoyed by Ilya's antics and bravado. Like, Shane? Shane Hollander? The same man who started salivating when rookie Roz said he was going to score 50 goals? The man who gets so hard over Ilya sexting him right before a game that he could storm into the visiting locker room and ride his man right there? The same Shane Hollander who happily accepted a blowjob while his best friend tried to have a deep and genuine conversation with him about his wife's difficult pregnancy? Nah, that dude is a peak enabler who loves his asshole husband.
