Ilya Rozanov & Shane Hollander • follow-up to Heated Rivalry • now streaming (Crave in Canada / HBO Max in the U.S.)

Everyone’s favorite hockey soulmates are back—and this time they’re not hiding. Unrivaled continues Ilya and Shane’s love story with the payoff fans have been waiting for: they’re out, married, and on the same team… and discovering that living in the light is its own kind of battle.

The vibe

For the first time in their pro careers, Ilya and Shane have nothing to conceal after more than a decade of secrecy. The support is incredible—most of the time. Because while plenty of fans are thrilled, parts of the hockey world are still furious about their relationship reveal. The backlash is growing, led by the popular podcast Top Shelf and the #TakeBackHockey movement, drawing a line that divides the sport.
