Summary
Shane Hollander is a man who thrives on structure, routine, the solid ground of a ten-year plan. Ilya likes that about him, likes the embracing squeeze of having a life organized in tandem with Shane.
No one would call Ilya a man who thrives on structure. But it’s there, if not in his DNA then in the patterns of his brain. A call-and-response of: they do this, I do that.
When Ilya’s life is flayed open for the world to dissect, how will they push-and-pull their way back towards what was once a well-organized life?
“I thought we could go through the schedules and figure out what days we’ll be in the same cities this season, or when either of us have a couple of days off in a row. Maybe make a shared calendar, so we c—”
“A sex calendar? Your parents are arriving in thirty minutes, and you are proposing making a sex calendar?” Oh, this was delicious. He’d be able to eat out on this for years, if Shane was willing to give him that long.
“It’s not a sex calendar! It’s just … when we might be able to see each other,” he finished, already sounding defeated.
“And what are you planning on doing when we are seeing each other? Not fucking?”

Summary
In which the Raiders try to convince (okay, bribe) Shane Hollander to wife Ilya Rozanov the fuck up.
The Raiders learn about Hollanov in a different way. Shane is very confused. Ilya loves his team. I regret nothing.
(This takes place a few months before the great tuna melt fiasco.)
Some sex talk but mostly a lot of swearing. Also not related to my other fics really but some of the character portrayals, especially the Boston Raiders being all good guys, is in my other work too.

"Did. You. Mean. It."
Carter Vaughn doesn't mind if his afternoon nap gets interrupted for a good cause. Which is good for him because Shane Hollander is so far past asking permission he may well bulldoze them all into a different universe.
Or: After Ilya gets outed in Sochi, Shane Hollander is determined to help. Carter, who possesses a healthy sense of self-preservation, is too smart to stand in his way—but, as it turns out, not quite smart enough to stay out of the drama.

Summary
Ilya doesn’t even try to stop the litany of Russian swears from spilling out. He also doesn’t stop himself from cursing Marly’s whole family line, and then verbalizing some of his more homicidal thoughts about Scott Hunter and the kitchen sink. He lets his Russian ranting die out and takes a few deep breaths.
Everyone has quieted to look at him.
“Feel better?” Marly asks.
Maybe Ilya could drown Marly in the sink along with Hunter. Maybe he could kill everyone in the suite before Shane wakes up. He’d have to kill the butler guy, too…and the front of house staff…and the wedding chapel staff…and then convince Shane to run away with him to somewhere that would neither extradite to the US nor prosecute them for being gay. Messy. Too messy.
OR
Ilya wakes up with a wedding ring and a WHOLE LOT of questions...but at least Marly and Scott fucking Hunter are having a good time. This is Ilya's worst nightmare which, as it turns out, features a night of blackout drinking, misguided but supportive friends, and some VERY stupid decisions.
Note: Chapter 4 is the social media epilogue

"But, you don't—" Shane starts, stutters out when Ilya rolls his hips again, sliding his hand down at the same time to palm Shane through his sweats. "You don't—want me."
...
"Oh, Shane," he breathes out, nosing at the underside of Shane's jaw. "I promise you, kotik. I want."
...
"Not the way I'd like to be wanted."
Or: Ilya never agrees to come to the cottage, so Shane flies down to Boston to drag him back.

Summary
In another timeline, Shane and Ilya hook up in Room 1410, Ilya slips out unnoticed, and they spend the next seven years trapped in the situationship from hell we all know and love.
In this one, Yuna Hollander walks in just as Ilya goes to leave and—through the combined power of misunderstanding, miscommunication, and a frankly alarming lack of follow-up—Shane and Ilya start dating in 2010.
Given the chance to grow up with rather than against each other, Shane and Ilya build a life thats steadier, safer, and far less frightening than their canon. Their rivalry fizzles before it ever has the chance to fully ignite, replaced by hockey’s most beloved “bromance", and in 2015, they find the courage to do the one thing their canon counterparts never got to do: tell the NHL and the world.
There is just one problem: No one believes them.
OR: Despite Shane and Ilya being out for two years, Scott Hunter is still considered the first openly gay player in the NHL, much to Ilya’s indignation.

Svetlana knows Ilya, him deciding to come to the NHL, means he wants out of Russia even if it isn’t right away and forces him to apply for a green card.

Summary
Shane Hollander has made a mistake. A big mistake that has landed him as a player in Boston alongside his estranged situationship, Ilya Rozanov.
Now, he has to deal with his confusing feelings for the Russian while the secret that is threatening to end his career is unravelling, and Shane just can't catch a break.
Ilya is fighting to protect Shane in the only way he knows how - by distancing himself. But he can't resist the freckled hockey player with a weak backhand who is no longer out of reach.**
'From the jungle around him, Shane could only make out a few words.
“Montreal… disappointed… best player in years…”
And, “Big scandal… rumours… care to comment?”
No he fucking would not like to comment, Shane thought, putting as much spite and anger into his mental retort as he could.
Then, one final voice carried through the air and into Shane's ears as he finally pushed through the airport doors.
“... famous rivalry… how will you and Rozanov deal with being on the same team?”
It was such a shock to the system, hearing that name.
What the fuck was he going to do?'

I've tried to be preemptive with the tags but I'll update them as I go along.

Summary
When Shane was outed half-an-hour before the NHL Draft, he thought it would be the worst day of his life. And when he proceeded to slide all the way into the third round, he wasn’t sure how he would survive. Then his new team banished him back to the OHL for two years until he aged out, and Shane burned at the humiliation.
On his good days, though, Shane could admit that it’d made him stronger. He was a better player now, and more comfortable in himself, and more ready to take the NHL by storm. Every time he’d thought that he was finished, he’d been wrong.
So maybe he’d survive playing on the same team as Ilya fucking Rozanov.
~ ~ ~
Shane is outed publicly 30 minutes before the first draft pick is announced. Ilya goes #1 overall to the Boston Bears. Shane is picked #65 overall in the third round… also by the Boston Bears.

Summary
Shane is heavier than he used to be; his weight bears down on Ilya in a new way. He’s put on pounds of muscle since Ilya last touched him like this. Ilya flattens his palms, skims them under Shane’s undershirt, feels the flat solidity of his abs, the bulk of his lats, the swell of his chest. It’s the same and it’s new, this body; it’s the boy he couldn’t stop thinking about when he was 18 and the man he loved enough to let go at 26 and the person who somehow always comes to find him when he’s lost.
A stranger, and the love of his life.
—
or, Ilya's father doesn't die in 2017; Ilya breaks up with Shane instead of confessing his love. They get older, but not any less stupid about each other. Shane gets a boyfriend; Ilya gets on medication; they work on becoming whole people. And they always find their way back to each other.
OR a story for those who love Shane and Ilya's baby love but ALSO think it's hot when people in their thirties make active choices about who they are and what they want in their partner!!
Note: the "cheating" tag refers to the relationship between Shane and his aforementioned BF, not to Shane and Ilya cheating on each other.

He just doesn't know how yet.

Summary
“I would have married you, you know,” Ilya says, eyes determined but yielding, genuine and raw. “For real.”
And it doesn’t feel like the gift of control. It doesn’t feel like momentum, and Shane doesn’t know how to take these words and create direction.
It feels like a weight in his stomach and a fire to his plans and like the rug has been yanked from under him so quickly that he’s falling before he can put his hands up.
And all Shane can say in response, unplanned and unpracticed, is, “I didn’t even think you liked me that much.”
OR
Post-tuna melt incident, Ilya can't return to Boston due to problems with his visa. Shane offers him a place to stay.

Neil really thought that his problems were over, now that his father was dead and most of his people captured. MOST is the key word.
Minutes before a match with the USC he gets shot. He really doesn't want to ruin it for everyone though, so he thinks, hey, why not play with a bullet in my stomach.
It does not go as well as expected.
