Ok- I’m no here for Shane Hollander hate but that man is objectively an unobservant idiot (editing to oblivious because people think I’m being too harsh. The point stand though 😂)
I think I’ve said this before but everytime I rewatch (which is like a lot, like at least twice a week) I watch the first episode and he is like “we can’t tell anyone about this” or whatever the fuck he says and I yell at the screen everytime (now even before he says it) HES RUSSIAN!!
Like, what do you mean? I know he is 18 and has spent almost all of his life being obsessed with hockey so probably has extremely limited knowledge about anything else but… DUH
And, also, I just realised that when he asks “weren’t you afraid of getting caught” he was talking about the social/ hockey implications of sleeping with the coaches son and when Ilya replies “no, we had the same secret” he is thinking ‘obviously he wasn’t going to tell anyone because we both would have been beaten to death’.
