Jade Pike: *Hayden, Shane and Jackie are inside the house getting food and Ilya is outside with the Pike kids and Anya* Uncle Shane, Uncle Ilya had an accident in the car... Ruby is helping him.

alternatively: shane comes out to his parents. no mention of boyfriend. so best momager and agent of all time yuna hollander asks around, does some sleuthing, goes undercover online and surveys the land for the most successful queer hockey player other than her son. imagine her surprise when she discovers from multiple sources that ilya rozanov might be gay. she arranges ads and promotions and sponsors for shane and ilya to do jointly. she hopes they hit it off and get together - only the best for her baby ofc - and she not so subtly asks after ilya from shane when they have a joint thing or an event where they meet. she is hoping, manifesting, praying and buying spells on etsy to have the two best hockey players in her family.

Okay yes we laugh and joke about Ilya never winning an argument in that marriage, but we have proof IN THE SHOW that Shane will not stay mad at him for ANYTHING.

Wyatt Hayes is my baby. I love him. He is a nerd, he is one hell of a goalie, he is an ally, he is a crack head, he is a comic book fan, he is a certified wife guy, he is an ao3 fanfic author, he is a tumblrina, he is is when fanboying/girling/personing over his interest, he is a philanthropist, he married Lisa!!!!, a doctor, he plays with Hollanov.

He has also stumbled across hollanov fics since long before they came out and have (tho he’d never admit to it) read a few of them and found them adorable

shane (a little tipsy) being cornered by a few fans at a bar one night and they ask him what’s the best thing about coming out, expecting him to say something motivating like self-expression and liberation and shane just goes

Ilya is feels something ugly crawl up his throat after the first time shane scores for Ottawa. He doesn’t see ecstatic delight that always blooms on Shane's face even when they're simply passing pucks in the rink attached to the cottage, Doesn't see the easy confidence that shane usually carries himself with on the ice, Doesn't see THE shane hollander's victory smile.
