Summary
Nursey’s still sprawled on the ice when Birkholtz is skating dutifully over from the referee to the penalty box to serve his minor for tripping, so naturally no one else is around as he hears Birkholtz mutter “Still as clumsy as ever, Nurse?”
Nursey pulls himself to his feet and skates past the box as he goes to assume his position in the power play line. “Still drawing penalties for stupid shit, Birkholtz?”

Summary
In only a few short minutes, a limousine would pull up and deposit the first batch of gorgeous women into his lap. Then another limousine would provide the second round. And then a third. His only job would be to determine which women he found most attractive, with which he could see a potential for love.
As if the situation weren’t surreal enough, he’d had only two weeks to prepare for the next several months of his life. Two weeks to turn his life upside down.
As usual, he blamed Lardo.
Justin Oluransi quits his job and goes on the reality dating TV show The Bachelor looking to find love. It should be simple, but what he finds is nothing he (or Bachelor host Adam Birkholtz) could ever have imagined of in their wildest dreams.

Summary
“I just wanted,” he says, “a perfect day. With you. Because it’s our last day together and our last day being here as undergrads and we’re kissing the ice tonight, and the weather’s supposed to be beautiful, and you’re moving tomorrow and Holtzy I just — I don’t want to be missing you already.”
Holster wipes his eyes before he even realizes he’s crying. Behind him, Ransom sighs.
“One more day where everything’s the same,” he says, feeling around blindly for Rans’ fingers. He feels Rans nod as he laces their fingers together. “Yeah. Yeah, Rans. I’d like that a lot.”
__________________________Holsom after graduation and throughout the subsequent six months after Holster signs to an expansion team in Oregon, and realizes his feelings for Ransom too late. Holster's POV :) kinda angsty, but there's a happy ending :)
Inspired by shitty-check-please-aus: "Holster moves to Oregon while Ransom stays on the east coast. The time difference makes it difficult to talk and one day they wake up and realize they aren’t best bros anymore."

Summary
“It is an emergency,” Shitty says gently. “I’ll put out for a game shirt tonight, okay? And then we can watch your boy wreck some Aces, it’ll be fun.”
“Adam Birkholtz isn’t my—”
Shitty doesn’t let him finish. “I know I know, you just think he’s a great defenseman, did you see that game where he did x y z, his ass in that suit at that presser, got it. I’m fully versed on your appreciation of Holster’s, uh, technical skills.”
____________________________Justin and Adam grab the wrong duffel at the airport. This is what happens afterward.

Summary
Oh my God. Holster knows exactly where he’s seen that face before. He turns and punches Ransom in the arm. Ransom busts out laughing.
“Why didn’t you tell me that Jack is Jack Zimmermann?” Holster whispers furiously.
“For this very moment, bro.” Ransom is wiping tears from his eyes. “You should see your face.”
Jack Zimmermann. The guy everybody thought would be the number-one NHL draft pick the year he turned 18 (the year Holster turned 17), until he had some kind of breakdown and completely vanished from the hockey world. The ultimate hockey “Where Are They Now?” file.
Jack the Sexy Voice Bartender is Jack Zimmermann, which means he’s not just some cute bartender. He’s the guy Holster’s had a crush on since he was 16 years old.
~*~
NHL star Adam "Holster" Birkholtz goes to a bar after getting his eyes dilated for an exam, and falls for the bartender - who turns out to have a complicated history with hockey. Can he convince Jack to date someone from the world he's tried so hard to leave behind?

Summary
Ransom was quite for a long time. Holster tried not to panic. Tried not to let the dread settle over him again. It was a lot to take it, that was all. Finally, Ransom caught his eye. He was smiling.
“You’re gonna be a Falconer.” Holster grinned.
“And you’re going to Harvard, baby.”

Summary
Day 6 of Nursey Week
Prompt: Opportunity or Dreamer
“Shit.” Ransom looked impressed. “Are you serious?”
“Yeah, I think they’re starting to look at Samwell as one of the top colleges to try and pick from or something. Dex and I aren’t talking about it much. We don't want to affect each other’s decision.” His teeth worried at his lip. The reminder of next year's uncertainty got more and more stressful the closer to a decision he felt. The hiss of air next to him told him that Ransom could see some of his doubts, and the next thing Derek knew, he was being steered towards the stairs.
