Summary
Someone somewhere said any two people on earth can be linked with only 6 degrees of separation. Shane played this game in his head sometimes. He would make up maps of these links, just for the exercise of it. What he didn't do was map his connection to Ilya Rozanov, who had yet to walk into his life and crash down all 6 degrees of separation in one reckless fell swoop. Shane didn't know it, but he was already 6 degrees away from Ilya Rozanov. Because Shane was driving to Montreal, and Montreal was where a modeling agency he didn't know the name of was based. And that modeling agency recently put an ad out for a new campaign. That ad was seen by a girl named Svetlana who had curly hair and a quick, smart tongue. And that girl had called her best friend, Ilya Rozanov, and said, “There's work for you in Montreal, if you're good enough.” And Ilya Rozanov had been good enough, and was finally, finally getting out of Moscow after 19 miserable years. And those 6 degrees of separation would soon be just 1, because Ilya Rozanov & Shane Hollander would be existing in the same city without either knowing the other one existed.

Summary
‘I might open.”
“I might knock.”
The exchange that started it all. But what if it didn’t? What if Shane & Ilya didn’t connect in Shane's Toronto hotel room that night?For their entire careers, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov have been played up by the league as rivals. They’ve played their parts, while mostly trying to forget one awkward encounter 18 years ago that was…nothing, really. Or so they keep telling themselves. But when they coincidentally announce their end-of-the-season retirements on the same day, the league has just a few short months to parade the two rivals around before they both leave playing professional hockey behind for good. Forced to participate together in events, talk show appearances, and the filming of a documentary, Shane and Ilya might actually have to confront what they've been avoiding all these years: that the universe just won’t quit trying to push them together. But has too much time gone by? Have the lives they have lived separately made it impossible for them to be anything more? Do they want to be something more? Do they even have a choice?

Summary
What would their life look like after Shane moved to Boston and they never needed to navigate a long distance relationship in the closet after years of situationship?
OR
What if the soft spot to land was in each other's arms, and the world was more accepting than either of them had imagined?

Summary
"Oh, it looks like you’re doing better! With those scores, I guess we won’t have to meet as often anymore." Shane was beaming, proudly looking down at the transcript. Ilya’s smile immediately dropped.
Needless to say, he scored 20 points lower on the next midterm.
In which popular hockey fuckboy Ilya Rozanov falls madly in love with the university's golden boy Shane Hollander. Somehow, they go from being the talk on campus to becoming that couple.
Alternatively, my take on the Jock!Ilya x Nerd!Shane trope bc it is desperately underrepresented.
