Hayes: 

Tequila 1 - Rookies 0

 

Dykstra: 

Is that supposed to be our logo?

 

Hollander: 

I think it’s the centaur jumping over the parliament building 

It’s…abstract? 

 

Choinard: 

lmao you did yourselves so dirty 🤣

 

Bood: 

Amazing work boys

This is the funniest shit I’ve ever seen

why does the cen look so much like Barrett? 

 

Rozanov: 

Yes thank you for team morale boost! 

Truly terrible. Luca could have drawn something better in the womb

 

Luca: 

The Cen City lettering is not that bad at least

 

Barrett: 

It’s so bad someone will accuse us of hazing even though they did it to themselves 

 

Bood: 

For real. I have a guy that’s great at coverups when the time comes kids

 

 

[July 26th, 11:42 AM]

 

Holmberg: 

Pointy reading the chat just now “Who did Young get matching tattoos with last night?”

 

Young: 

And now he’s puking

 

Rozanov: 

Please don’t die of alcohol poisoning in foreign country. Would be too much paperwork to get you back

 

Hollander: 

Drink some water before rallying

And eat something with nutritional value too

 

Young: 

Yes daddies 😇🫡

 

Barrett: 

Ew

 

Choinard: 

Never say that again 🤮

 

 

[July 28th, 4:07 PM]

LaPointe: 

Am I fucked for getting back into Canada?

[Image Description - A soaked, curling passport sitting on a patio table]

 

Barrett: 

lmao what did you do to it?

 

LaPointe: 

there was a frozen marg situation

 

Rozanov: 

Is it just the cover that’s fucked or the pages inside too?

 

LaPointe: 

I think the inside is okay?

[Image Description - Pictures of every page of LaPointe’s passport]

 

Hollander: 

I think you’ll be fine

I’m sending you the phone number of the consulate though

Call them and ask to be sure

Also you know you’re not supposed to send pics of your passport to people right? 

That’s how you get your identity stolen

 

LaPointe: 

Oh shit! Is that like hacking? 🤯

 

Holmberg: 

I thought they only did that for famous people’s nudes?

 

Hollander: 

Just delete the pictures

 

Hayes: 

Do we have an over/under yet of how many rookies actually make it back from this trip?

 

LaPointe: 

Just talked to the consulate

I am good to go

It wasn’t even the worst margarita incident she’s seen today 

Fuck off @Hayes y’all can’t get rid of us that easily

 

 

[August 22nd, 4:29 PM]

Holmberg: 

On a scale of 1 to 10, is a late period bad?

 

LaPointe: 

Bro what? 🤣🤣🤣

 

Choinard: 

Bergy that question makes zero sense

 

Holmberg: 

Sorry I’m trying to figure out if I’m panicking

 

Rozanov: 

Pregnancy scares happen Bergy, no need to panic until there is positive test

 

Hayes: 

How late are we talking bud?

 

Holmberg: 

She said a week

But it’s only been like two weeks since the sex

So she thinks it’s too early for a test?

 

Bood: 

Are you sure about the date?

 

Holmberg: 

Yeah

We were hooking up in a hot tub

And I wrapped it up of course, I’m a gentleman

But the condom broke

I think the heat made it weird?

But I also thought you couldn’t get someone pregnant in water?

It like washes everything away?

 

Hollander: 

Oh Bergy

You can definitely get someone pregnant in water

And condoms aren’t that effective in it

 

Rozanov: 

I did not know North America had such bad sex education

I will put together power point for first team meeting

 

Holmberg: 

Fuck my life

I’m going to be such a stupid dad

 

Rozanov: 

Not stupid, just clueless 

Like bird that flies into window

But we will help you get smarter

 

Luca: 

Sorry you are going through this Bergy

 

LaPointe: 

It’s going to be okay man! It’ll all work out! 🙌

 

Young: 

Yeah I’m sure fatherhood isn’t harder than winning a Stanley, and you’ve already done that 💪

 

Bood: 

HAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

 

Choinard: 

@Bood I think it’s too soon for us to give him the hard truth lmao

 

Dykstra: 

Are you at home Bergy? Cait and I can stop by and talk you through all this

 

Holmberg: 

Yes that would be so amazing 🙏

 

Dykstra: 

Sounds good, we’ll be there in twenty

 


 

Ilya Rozanov -> Mason Holmberg

 

[August 22nd, 7:13 PM]

Rozanov: 

How are you doing Bergy?

 

Holmberg: 

Okay I think?

Caitlin and Dykstra helped a lot

I’m just so scared

Like can you imagine me being a dad???

 

Rozanov: 

Being scared is very normal

If she is pregnant, you have nine months to prepare

Is a long time to get ready

Are you in a relationship with her?

 

Holmberg: 

Nah we just hooked up a few times

She was just visiting family here for the summer

But she goes to university in Toronto

 

Rozanov: 

I see

Have you talked to her much about any of this?

 

Holmberg: 

Not really. She just told me she’s late and is going to her doctor next week for a blood test

I think she’d be a good mom. She’s really smart

But I have no idea if she wants to be

Or if we’d be like good at parenting together

 

Rozanov: 

There are many things to worry about, but see what the blood test says first, yes?

And if she is pregnant but does not want to be, that is okay

I know that is a sensitive subject

But the team will support you no matter what, there will be no judgment

And you do not need to tell us anything you are uncomfortable with

It is none of our business unless you want it to be

 

Holmberg: 

Thanks Roz. I really needed to hear that

 

Rozanov: 

Of course, is stressful time

Please call or text anytime if you need to

And try to do whatever you can to support her too

This is a lot for women to go through, can be very scary 

Just ask if either of you need anything at all

 

Holmberg: 

Thank you. Can I call now?

 

Rozanov: 

Yes. Give me a few minutes to grab my charger

 


 

CENTAURS GROUP CHAT

 

[August 23rd, 9:58 PM]

Bood: 

[TMZ Link - NBA Star Leandros Kazantzidis and NHL Champion Luca Haas Pictured Kissing Outside of Berlin BDSM Night Club]

LUCA MICHAEL NATHANIEL HAAS 

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS

 

Choinard: 

Bro no fucking way

Generational pull

 

Rozanov: 

Luca I am so proud! 

You should check out Mutschmanns and Woof too

I will send full list of recommendations 

 

LaPointe: 

Get innnnnnn Haasy

 

Dykstra: 

Congrats kid! Hope you had fun

 

Young: 

LEO KAZ??

THE LEO KAZ????

Is it too soon to ask about court side seats?

 

Bood: 

Yes

 

Dykstra: 

Yes

 

Barrett: 

One second they’re asking you what Feeld is

The next they’re wearing a harness outside of a sex club

They grow up so fast

 

Hayes: 

Awww Luca! Yeah I don’t think we can call him the baby anymore lmao

 

Holmberg: 

What is Feeld?

 

Barrett: 

No

 

Hollander: 

No

 

Hayes: 

No

 

Bood: 

Seriously though @Luca, are you alive? That man is like seven feet tall

 

Barrett: 

He hasn’t answered Harris yet either. Probably still asleep, it’s like 4 am in Europe

 

Hollander: 

Let him rest. He had a big night

 

Rozanov: 

Yes very big. Look at size of those hands

 

Dykstra: 

Jesus christ

 

[August 24th, 7:32 AM]

Luca: 

@Bood I am alive. But my middle name is not Michael or Nathaniel?

 

Hayes: 

Luca lives! So not the point though bud lol

 

Bood: 

Glad to hear it! Should I be expecting Leo Kaz at our next barbecue? 

 

Hayes:

👀

 

LaPointe: 

Omg yes please let us meet him

 

Young: 

We will be so chill!

 

Dykstra: 

No one on this team has ever been chill

 

Rozanov: 

Yes, remember how weird you all were meeting Hollander?

 

Choinard: 

I’ll bring 2K!

Or is he more of a FIFA guy?

 

Holmberg: 

@Luca come back! We won’t scare him away I promise

 

[August 24th, 9:27 AM]

Luca: 

Think you could do even better next time? 🥵

[Image Description: Luca’s mouth, neck, and chest in frame. He is covered in bruises, hickeys, and bite marks]

Oh my god

Wrong chat obvs sorry

Why won’t it let me unsend???

No one scroll up

Please throw your phones in the ocean

Or burn your eyeballs off

 

Young: 

Not Haasy sexting in the team group chat 🤣

 

Barrett: 

He really is the next Roz

 

Bood: 

Fucking hell kid! Can you even breathe?

 

Hayes: 

That looks worse than when I broke three ribs

 

Luca: 

I’m fine. I just bruise easily because of my pale complexion 

 

Rozanov: 

Luca, this man is not allowed to do better next time

Practice starts in two weeks and I need you to be able to put on shoulder pads

Safe bondage is getting added to the sex power point

 

Luca: 

Ugh please stop looking at it I want to die

 

Rozanov: 

It’s nothing to be embarrassed about! 

When Montreal and Boston used to play, Shane could not take his shirt off in locker room for whole week after

 

Hollander: 

ILYA

But it’s really no big deal Haasy. Ice pack should take care of it

 

Hayes: 

Lisa swears by Arnica too

Some hot tea with honey probably wouldn’t hurt either

 

Choinard: 

Selena loves bubble baths together the next day. It’s romantic as hell

 

LaPointe: 

I think we all know too much about each other

 

Hollander, Luca, Barrett, Young, Dykstra, and Bood like this message. 

 

Young: 

Haasy please tell me you’re dating this man for real

 

Luca: 

Oh. I don’t think so? I think we are probably friends

 

Holmsberg: 

Haasy is out here friend zoning the best player in the NBA and Pointy can’t even get a text back

 

LaPointe: 

🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

 

 

 

GAY + BI CENS

 

[August 24th, 10:03 AM]

Luca: 

Hypothetically, how would I know if a guy wanted to be my boyfriend and not just fwb?

 

Barrett: 

“Hypothetically” sure bud

Idk if I’m the person to give advice though

Adrian called me his boyfriend for the first time when asking for a Birkin bag as a gift

 

Hollander: 

Jesus

 

Rozanov: 

Each new Adrian story is sadder than the last

 

Luca: 

I’m sorry Barrett

 

Rozanov: 

Shane did not think we were boyfriends even after we said I love you and made a ten+ year plan to be together

 

Hollander: 

I didn’t want to assume!

 

Rozanov: 

@Luca has he texted you about anything other than sex since last night?

 

Luca: 

Just checking to see how I was feeling

And making sure I ate lunch after I left

He also asked me to go with him to the flea market tomorrow

 

Harris: 

Buddy….

I’m going to hold your hands while I say this

That is a date

 

Luca: 

I’m not so sure 

He knows I’ve been before because I told him how much I loved going with my sisters a few years ago

He probably just wants to go with a friend who is familiar with the area and can translate

 

Barrett: 

No absolutely

If I wanted to just have wild sex with someone and definitely not catch feelings, I would take him to shop for vintage furniture and art before noon

 

Rozanov: 

Luca, he listened to a story about your childhood. I didn’t even know the last name of most people I hooked up with

 

Hollander: 

Yeah sorry Haasy, it sounds like a date

You can just ask him though

Easier than trying to read his mind

 

Luca: 

It wouldn’t be cringe to ask?

 

Rozanov: 

Of course not

And if it does not go well, blame it on language barrier

Always works!

 

Harris: 

Open and honest communication is never cringe!!! 

It is the foundation of a strong relationship 

I have an audiobook recommendation about it if you’re interested 😊

 

Rozanov: 

Troy, I am very worried for my friend Harris

Did elderly dinosaur Scott Hunter break out of nursing home and steal his phone thinking it was life alert? 

Is this why he sends message sounding ancient?

 

Harris: 

We both know Hunter would’ve frozen like a baby deer just reading Luca’s headline 😅

 


 

Ilya Rozanov -> Kip Grady

 

[August 24th, 10:15 AM]

Rozanov: 

Hello my very good friend Kip! 

 

Kip: 

Hi Ilya

 

Rozanov: 

Did Hunter see the news about Luca yet?

 

Kip: 

What news? We’re in Hawaii and Scott is trying to unplug

 

Rozanov: 

Is this safe? He will die without life support machines to keep him going, yes? 

I wasn’t familiar with your game Grady

 

Kip: 

Very funny

Spill the tea please so I can get back to having luxurious vacation sex

 

Rozanov: 

Fine but promise me you will tell me his reaction

 

Kip: 

Sure whatever

 

Rozanov: 

[TMZ Link - NBA Star Leandros Kazantzidis and NHL Champion Luca Haas Pictured Kissing Outside of Berlin BDSM Night Club]

Make sure he sees pictures too

 

Kip: 

Please thank Luca for his service

I’ve never laughed so hard

Scott is staring out a window like he’s having war flashbacks

I don’t think he’s ever going to be able to look that kid in the eye again

 

Rozanov: 

😈😈😈 

 

Kip: 

Oh no he’s finally speaking

“Children shouldn’t be allowed in harnesses”

“He’s being so European in front of God and everyone”

“I’m gonna have to explain kink to Roger fucking Crowell at the next union meeting”

 

Rozanov: 

The gay agenda is in serious danger if we are relying on Hunter to teach anyone about kink

 

Kip: 

Don’t worry, I’ve been teaching him a few things 😇

 

Rozanov: 

Make sure he uses safe word before he breaks a hip

 

Kip: 

Goodbye Ilya 

 


 

GAY + BI CENS

 

[August 24th, 10:41 AM]

Luca: 

I tried the open communication idea. I learned that the flea market is going to be our fourth date

 

Harris: 

omg Luca please never change 🥰

 

Hollander: 

What were the first three?

 

Luca: 

Cooking dinner together at his airbnb, seeing his friend’s DJ set, and an art museum tour

I clarified that last night did not count

 

Barrett: 

Fucking hell

 

Rozanov: 

You thought you were just hanging out as bros and then fucking? 

 

Luca: 

No! But to be friends with benefits, you need to be friends

And I thought he just wanted to see Berlin with someone that speaks German

I’m taking him out to dinner tonight since I felt so bad that I hadn’t planned any of the dates yet

Do I get him flowers? Or is that too cheesy?

 

Barrett: 

I think it’s a good move

 

Rozanov: 

Because it was your only move, buying Harris gifts so you could sit in his office all morning

 

Harris: 

If it works it works 🤷‍♂️

I think flowers would be very sweet 

 

Hollander: 

Hope it goes well Luca!

 

Rozanov: 

Yes I hope you get to have romantic boyfriend sex

 


 

CENTAURS GROUP CHAT

 

[September 2nd, 11:34 AM]

Holmberg: 

Got the test result back! Your boy is not going to be a father!!!!!

🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Did you guys know about UTI’s tho? Scary AF

 

Rozanov: 

Congratulations Bergy

I’ll add that as power point topic too

Please wash your dick before putting it inside anyone

They are already doing great service, no need to make them suffer

 

LaPointe: 

lmao thank god

I know we were trying to hype you up

But that was so scary bro

 

Holmberg: 

💯 real tense there for a minute ngl

 

Young: 

Yeah man you wouldn’t have even been able to go back to Mexico with us next summer

 

Choinard: 

Pour one out for all the boy’s trips that have been ruined by fatherhood 😥

 

Barrett: 

Now that you’ve been released back into the wild, make sure to stay away from hot tubs

 

Hayes: 

Maybe all bodies of water to be safe

 

Holmberg: 

🖕🖕🖕

But fr I’m celebrating tonight! 

The Saloon at 9

I’ll buy a round for anyone that’s in town 

 

 

[September 7th, 10:18 AM]

Bood: 

Friendly reminder that the preseason barbecue starts at 7 tonight! Can’t wait to see you idiots again

 

Luca: 

@Bood Is it okay if I bring Leo? 

I want you all to meet my boyfriend while he’s in Ottawa

 

Young: 

BOYFRIEND???

HAASY YOU LEGEND

WE ARE SO BACK

Luca: 

Oh! That is a nice offer but no thank you

 

Bood: 

@Luca of course kid

@Everyone Signifiant others, children, and dogs are welcome as always! 

And please be on your best behavior so we don’t scare Luca’s boyfriend away

@Young looking at you specifically

Young dislikes this message

 

[September 20th, 8:24 PM]

 

Rozanov added Nguyen, Proulx, and Obolonsky to the chat

 

Rozanov:

Everyone please welcome the new children

 

LaPointe:

Hey! How do you guys feel about Cabo?
