Summary
Retirement was supposed to be easy.
For former NHL stars Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander, life after hockey means quiet mornings, a stable marriage, and finally getting to enjoy the future they waited so long for. It's just, there may be something missing.
Then they're asked to billet Charlie Knight, a seventeen-year-old prospect with talent to spare and a lot to prove.
As Charlie chases his hockey dreams, Shane and Ilya have to balance their relationship, mentoring the new generation, and becoming overnight fathers.
NOTE: Explicit Hollanov. No romantic or sexual relationship involving Charlie; his relationship with Shane and Ilya is entirely parental and mentor-based.

Summary
Tommy stares down into his coffee cup. He doesn’t have a problem with two guys kissing—obviously, he wouldn’t have agreed to this billet arrangement if he did—and he’s not surprised to see Shane and Ilya doing it—like everyone else with even a passing interest in hockey, he saw the FanMail—but, well, he’s maybe a little surprised to see that what they were doing in the FanMail was, apparently, just a casual kiss for them. Judging by this, anyway.
When Shane and Ilya agree to become billet parents, they resolve to keep their (admittedly intense) sex life carefully confined to the bedroom, and out of earshot.
They do an okay job of that. All the other parts of taking in a rookie? They do even better.

Summary
Nathan Harradine, a junior player from the WHL and a Centaurs prospect, has—somehow—made it to the Centaurs' training week after a miraculous and miserable fluke after rookie camp.
The Centaurs know he's a bit… odd. Quiet. Nervous.
Ilya Rozanov is suspicious and confused about what his deal is, but finds himself taking a liking to the kid, for some reason.
But what no one knows is the burdens Nathan is carrying, nor the ghosts he's brought with him from the Moose Jaw Marauders that threaten to spill over at any time. The question is, can he keep a hold of himself, or will it all come crashing down?

Summary
Outside, bugs swarm around the porch light. A half-moon hangs over the dark swath of lake, spider-spun white daubed across the oil-spill surface. That perfect day on the water was less than a week ago. The scabs on Ilya’s ankle haven’t even healed. He knew the rest of their lives would be an uphill battle; he just hoped they could lie in the grass for a little longer.
There’s a hitch in Shane’s breath, a catch that brings Ilya’s attention back to him. He’s seen the ice tilt, analyzed the offense, and realization freezes across his face.
The whistle blows. Ilya’s been caught.
“You don’t want to figure this out,” Shane says finally. “You want him to billet with you.”
Last season, Ilya broke his jaw. Next season, he'll break from Boston for Ottawa and a shot at making an impossible relationship work. This season, he breaks every promise he’s ever made.

Be safe, have fun, and watch out for Yuna Hollander by everythingsflux

Summary
We all wondered since we heard the seemingly throw away line from Shane in Episode 4 about someone being a nice guy, but Yuna bullying him for his hand-eye coordination just who that kid was and how he came to be exposed to the Hollanders, especially Yuna.
My brain decided it was 16 year-old Tyler Wilson, a kid who billeted with the Hollanders during the 2006-2007 hockey season and who was so deeply traumatized by having Yuna Hollander as a billet mom that he accidentally vilified her across North America - please note, he’s justified, he just didn’t mean for it happen.

Summary
Team management e-mails him early in the afternoon, but it’s just after helping Jackie feed Ruby and Jade dinner, when Hayden has the chance to go to the bedroom and sit against the bed headboard, that he manages to see and read it. The language is polite but friendly, and the person writing it actually identifies herself as the lady from the team’s media relationship, Nathaly, which immediately makes the exchange feel more real. She calls Hayden by his first name too, which also helps. Hayden has read some official communication before, but they addressed the team as a whole, so he knows this is different. Nathaly is talking to him to know if there’s any way he might billet for next season.
***
Alternate universe where Hayden was drafted two seasons before Shane and is three years older than him. He's not quite a veteran, but, somehow, he still gets picked by the Metros to house hockey's second coming of christ, Shane Hollander, during his rookie season. Shane never really leaves.

Summary
The Hollander family had never billeted a hockey player in their home before. That all changed when the Ottawa junior league reached out to Yuna Hollander with an emergency case: a boy from Russia who suddenly needed a Canadian homestay. The boy’s father had not initially planned for him to come to Canada for training, but due to some unforeseen and mysterious circumstance, he’d changed his mind. Now the boy, Ilya Rozanov, was coming to stay with the Hollander family for the hockey season. And no one had bothered to ask Shane Hollander what he thought of this.
He hated it.

Summary
In a quiet Czech village untouched by war, fifteen-year-old Eliška spends her days birdwatching from trees, avoiding the other girls’ gossip, and dodging her brother’s growing anger toward the occupying forces. But when German troops arrive to stay—not pass through—the rhythm of her world collapses. Her family is forced to billet a young soldier, Elias Becker, polite and unreadable, with dark blond hair and a gaze that lingers longer than it should.
He doesn’t speak Czech. She doesn’t speak German. And yet, something passes between them.
What begins as silence grows into stolen glances, half-understood words, and the ache of wanting something she doesn’t yet have a name for. As war tightens its grip on the village, Eliška finds herself writing him letters—first in secret, then endlessly, even after he’s gone. Letters she never sends. Letters she never expects to matter.
Until he returns.
But he’s no longer the quiet boy on her doorstep. And she’s no longer the girl with a notebook full of birds.
A slow-burn, bittersweet love story told in fragments, letters, and the spaces war leaves behind.
