clean ice, cold hearts, can't lose
[complete - 17k | explicit | tw for internalized homophobia]
Steve Harrington has been working his entire life for this: his first ever NHL game, as the rookie goalie for the Montreal Canadiens. As a second generation NHL player, Steve knows he has a lot riding on this game, and on his entire career, but he's not worried. He may be young, but he's got the talent and skills to back him up, with nothing else to distract him. That is, until Bruins forward and noted troublemaker Eddie Munson, a fellow rookie who Steve knows vaguely from Juniors, skates onto the ice and into Steve’s closet, and threatens to tear down everything he’s worked for with his criminally talented tongue.
