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.

I love Shane's whole thing where he goes along one track for literally years ignoring the pot slowly heating up around him and then someone sticks a thermometer in and he jolts up and is like "wait. I need to change everything about my life" and then he just does. zero hesitation

whats yalls ultimate fave character. like years have passed, interests have come and gone, yet theyre still here. mines ellie williams

ok actually the fact that in tlg hayden is convinced that ilya is straight and not sexually attracted to men and has been fucking shane for a DECADE and is now LIVING WITH and ENGAGED to him as part of ilya’s plot to corrupt and ruin his hockey competitor and leave shane heartbroken and ruined at the altar while twirling his dastardly mustache is actually iconic. like could you even blame ilya at that point. he leaves boston for ottawa and tanks his own career and becomes a political refugee exiled from his home country so he can fuck a guy he’s not even attracted to in order to ruin his life. that would be the hardest anyone has ever balled. they call it the long game for a reason.

6 months ago i had heard nothing of shane hollander. this does not seem possible. and yet
