Ilya blinked at the page for a moment, then looked up at Shane and laughed. Shane immediately grew defensive. "Oh, fuck you! I was trying to be nice." He pulled the book back, but Ilya stopped him when he turned to walk away. "Shane Hollander." "What?" "Privet. Hello." "Oh." Shane's pronunciation hadn't been remotely close. "And what about...?"

Shane Hollander, underappreciated and deeply closeted third-liner on said team, was perhaps the most shocked of everyone. The cocky Russian phenom hadn't made the best impression on Shane during a brawl at World Juniors a couple years prior, but when a noticeably sullen Ilya arrived in their locker room, Shane couldn't help but reach out to him.
