Summary
Shane Hollander was doing fine. He was about to start his fourth year at Concordia University in Montreal, where he was now Captain of the Stingers, he had a solid group of friends who actually knew he was gay and were cool about it, and this time next year he would be playing for the Metros.
He was doing great, really.
Or he had been, until none other than Ilya Rozanov, the 28 year old KHL player who had recently disapeared from the world of hockey, became his professor and mentor.
or: Coach Theriault inadvertently sets up professor-Ilya and student/hockey captain-Shane.

Summary
“Oh my god, oh my god. Seriously, this is the best. I can’t believe you’re my neighbour. I’m calling it now, Hollander. This right here is the beginning of a friendship that will go down in history.”
Ilya is 10 years old when his family moves from Jacksonville, Florida to small town Ontario. There, he forms an unexpected friendship with Shane, the boy living on the ginseng farm across the street.
As they grow up and grow apart, their paths continue to cross at high school hockey games, in tabloid articles, and at one particular intimate Muskoka cottage.
OR: A childhood friends to strangers to lovers AU in which Shane Hollander (up and coming indie rock star) and Ilya Rozanov (brooding artist) take nearly fifteen years to figure their shit out.

Dear PenPal, Cry Every Day Until My Next Letter by disappearordie, thedaisyfairy

Summary
In 2003, Shane Hollander is assigned a PenPal, and gains a friend. A friend who smokes, calls him boring, and gives him ridiculous nicknames.
Across the world, Ilya Rozanov practices his English with a curious Canadian boy whose name he can't fucking remember.
Or, before they were Canada's Shane Hollander and Russia's Ilya Rozanov, they were Cat and Elijah. Shane has no reason to suspect his childhood PenPal is his hockey rival, and Ilya has never even considered that the man he's falling for is also the boy he already fell in love with through letters and postcards.

Summary
12-year-old Shane Hollander hates the shopping trip they always do first thing when they arrive at the cottage every summer. He just doesn't get why they can't just bring all the stuff they need with them from Ottawa so he can get on with his vacation. But when this year's shopping trip ends with him meeting the very cool and mysterious Ilya Rozanov, the son of the new flower seller in town, well, he finds he doesn't mind it as much this year. He's hoping he's finally found the friend he's never quite been able to make. And if this friend has a smile that maybe makes his heart do little backflips sometimes, well that's just because Shane is excited to finally have a friend to make smile... right?
Or, what would happen if Irina chose another way to escape, brought Ilya to Canada, and he and Shane became childhood best friends? Without the rivalry, without the need to be enemies, would they figure out the rest?
