grayscale sketch of ilya rozanov from heated rivalry. a bust left facing side profile, with a brooding and despondent, maybe frustrated expression. ilya is resting his right index and middle fingers on his chest over his cross necklace.

i’m trying to not be parasocial about it but i can’t help but have a genuine concern for what a rise to stardom like this has the potential to do to their mental health

a fear i have is hudson and connor ending up resentful of the show bc a lot of us and journalists and paps and media people don’t understand or respect boundaries

one of my favorite things abt this fandom is how united we all are in this ❤️

okay, fine, hockey

#heatedrivalry #hollanov

this is everything i need

tumblr’s reblog system has NOT been kind to me

thanks y’all for reposting the mole version so i don’t have to live in shame forever 🙏

i forgot his fucking mole i need to make an apology video

i forgot his fucking mole i need to make an apology video

There are gay players in the league and culturally it is unsafe and detrimental to their careers to come out. This isn’t about an oversight of community inclusion but widespread workplace discrimination that is normalized and encouraged from Bettman himself, and filters downward. He is a dinosaur.

‼️ I’m Jacob/Adam/etc & I post art and sometimes other stuff about gay hockeys

I don’t like just calling them cowards actually, and writing it off as just fear, it’s intentional & systematic. They’re constantly moving the goal posts back. While I wish the response was stronger, I’m grateful to the players and actors on traditional and social media who are pushing back

If they actually want new hockey fans from all directions and care about “You Can Play” as much as they barely pretend they do they should be all over this shit. Fucking cowards

this is so insanely cute and dynamic 😭

A simple drawing of Ilya Rozanov & Shane Hollander from Heated Rivalry, in their hockey team uniforms sans their helmets.

something something they're putting chemicals in the ice to turn the hockey players gay
