Pike: Have you not got another religious body to offend?

Cap: Hayden - So when we took the metro to see the Duomo? Have you got your passport?

Pike: Yes. I’d left it in the safe. There was my driving license in there though. And cash.  

Roz: Where do you usually keep your wallet?

Canadian Team defenseman “pickpocketed” in busy Milan Metro
by Luca Corona, Sports Correspondent. Published: 12.51pm. Last updated: 1.01pm

It was just three days ago that the Canada ice Hockey’s National Team was seen visiting Milan’s most famous landmarks – the Duomo, the Vittorio Emanuele II gallery, the Navigli.

The visit, however, may have included an unexpected and unpleasant souvenir. According to an anonymous source close to the team, in fact, defenseman Hayden Pike was allegedly pickpocketed on the way to…

OK take it with a grain of salt but you know how the olympic village has a condom shortage rn? and obvs the canadian team is staying at a hotel, and hollander has them on that insane macrobiotic, performance-enhancing diet. well, i know someone from a curling team and they said that “the Red Menace” was bartering the condoms he had left for the highest bid. one of the winners was someone who smuggled him one of the nutella dispensers with white bread

Ilya: i don't deal with infidels

 

 

13th February. A hotel in Milan. 10.54pm. 

 

Shane’s hand hovers above the open drawer of the hotel’s sidetable, his eyebrows furrowing slightly. “Ilya,” he says, “where are the condoms?”

Ilya watches him run the maths in his head. They’ve had sex every day, and multiple times a day at that, too. The victory against Italy alone had him hard as a rock before they even toed their shoes off in the room. Still, it’s nowhere near enough times to justify the fact that two of the five packs they brought from Canada are completely gone. 

Shane sits back on Ilya’s legs, thighs bracketing Ilya’s hips. “Ilya.”

Ilya’s dick twitches against his tummy. “Shane. I love you.”

“Ilya,” Shane says again. His dick is still hard, despite confusion. Victory. “What happened to our condoms?”

“I don’t know,” says Ilya. “Why don’t you ask Damian Clara?”

Cap: If I catch anyone eating the portions of tiramisu Ilya bartered for five condoms I will make sure they get benched for the rest of the olympic run.

#MilanoCortina2026, Damian Clara is ready to face Slovakia in second preliminary match: he talks injuries, NHL future, relax tips, and the “condom shortage” #WinterOlympics2026

[Attached: Video. Clara stands in front of his Village twin room. He looks tired, dark circles around his eyes. 

Reporter: The match against Canada was tough. Have you had a think about what could have gone differently? 

Clara: Uh, yes. I think I had blocked about sixty shots by the time I injured myself. I don’t think anything could have gone differently, necessarily. Canada is tough. Those are the top players in the NHL. I think they clocked one of Hollander’s shots at almost 100 miles per hour. Rozanov’s—I think 89 miles. That one hit me on the shin.

Reporter: Rozanov was tough on you. Any idea why?

Clara, immediately: No. 

Reporter: And your injury? Have you recovered?

Clara: [Stuttering.] I’m, uh, fine. I’ll be playing today. I appreciate the experience. I want to focus on the upcoming challenges now.

Reporter: That’s the spirit. And I have to ask—have you noticed the great “condom shortage” of the Olympics 2026? It’s all everyone is talking about. 

Clara: Sort of. I was in bed early last night. I like reading, so I was relaxing, reading Dostoevsky. It’s my favourite author. But athletes from various countries kept knocking at our room door at all hours of the night. Someone spread a rumour that I was the only one with condoms left. Which. (His eye twitches.) It’s not true, obviously. So I didn’t really sleep much.

22nd February. Sanremo. It's 3.10am.

It's late and he's bone-tired and he wishes he could be in bed, at the cottage, back in Canada. But they're here, they're gold medallists together, and it's just the last stretch of this journey, this TV appearance, and so: yes, they're trying to make hockey accessible to everyone, regardless of ethnicity, gender identity, and sexual orientation. And: There’s a lot of things people say online, says one of the hosts. Amadeus? Ilya isn’t sure. It feels like he's on drugs. “Like that you’re trying to push the LGBT agenda.”

“Well,” says Shane, easily, beside him. Diplomatic, as usual. “If the agenda is winning, then yes.”

There’s laughter around the theatre. And you, says the other host, Fiorello?, addressing Ilya. "There are still a lot of religious people online who are quite—uh— upset at what you said a couple of weeks ago. And I understand. I was excommunicated, too, once. Quite a few priests and other religious figures posting tweets against you on Twitter." 

“That is fine,” says Ilya, offering his best smile. Fake teeth and all. “I understand why they wouldn’t like me, the priests.”

Shane stills, because of course he does. He knows him better than he knows himself. 

“Yes?” asks Amadeus.

“Sure,” says Ilya.  “Because I am older than 12.”

 

 

 

fin (for real).

Notes:

mind you, most if not all of the things in sanremo (the festival that inspired eurovision, btw) happened for real at some point, including the butt plugs and the handcuffs. and they do invite international guests every year.

if this made you laugh, let me know. i had a blast writing it. in the meantime, bonus:
