Summary
During the quiet stretch of the off-season, when the world slows and the rink sits nearly empty, Shane and Ilya make a life-changing decision, they become foster parents.
They expect paperwork, waiting, and time to prepare. Instead, they get three children that same night.
Logan, Kaitlyn, and Maggie arrive with everything they own in trash bags and more weight on their shoulders than any child should carry. What follows is their journey of learning how to comfort, navigate anger, and how to build trust with kids who have only ever known instability.

Summary
A quiet, hyper-aware hometown prodigy Shane Hollander and a volatile, misunderstood Russian rookie Ilya Rozanov are thrown together on a rebuilding Ottawa team, where their near-telepathic chemistry on the ice turns into a slow-burning, complicated connection off it.
As pressure, trauma and expectation close in, they circle each other through tension, anger, and fragile trust, learning, piece by piece how to belong to the same place, and maybe to each other.
Or: A story where Ilya and Shane end up on the same team from beginning.
