Jane

bood wants to know if jane wants to join wag chat
WAG? Like wives and girlfriends?
That feels like cheating.
how?
I'm quite literally on another team.
they do not know this
and is not like they discuss team secrets. they plan brunch
bood says they have book club
I don't know, Ilya
would be good for you to read books not about hockey
Fuck you.
Do you want me to join?
would be nice for them to get to know you, yes?
Okay. Only because you asked so nicely.

Cassie
Hi Jane! This is Cassie Boodram, Zane's wife. Zane got your number from Ilya!
Lisa
welcome, Jane! this is Lisa, Wyatt's wife
Caitlin
Caitlin Dykstra!
the rest of the girls will filter in over the afternoon, probably
Hi, everyone. It's nice to meet you! :)
Lisa
were you in the WAG chat while Ilya was in Boston?
Oh, um. Ilya and I actually weren't official until last summer. So this is my first WAG chat.
Cassie
Really? Zane said it sounded like you two have been together forever
It's... complicated.
Lily

What have you told the team about us?
just that i have a jane and she is special
Nothing about when we got together?
no. timeline is complicated
hockey players do not care
Their wives do.
ah
tell them what you like,
i trust
You're very sweet.

Ilya and I started seeing each other casually the summer before his rookie season.
Caitlin
BEFORE HIS ROOKIE SEASON
Selena
Selena Chouinard! I'm Nick's wife
Heather
Hi, Jane, I'm Heather! Boyle's wife
Now, Cait, why are we yelling
Lisa
Jane just told us that she's been seeing Ilya for ten years.
Casually. Very on and off.
Caitlin
girl, still!
Cassie
That's a long time to wait for him to get his shit together
We both needed to get our shit together, really.
And he was worth it.
Heather
Sounds like you're lucky to have found each other, then.
The luckiest.

How do you guys deal with the distance?
Heather
Oh, sweetheart. I wish we could tell you it gets easier.
Caitlin
And you don't even really get to see him, do you?
Evan mentioned that you're not local
I see him more now that he lives in Ottawa, at least. It was worse when he was in Boston.
Cassie
that pesky international border?
That's the one. And Ottawa is closer to Montreal than Boston.
Caitlin
Jane, baby. I have a question for you
and before I ask, I want to remind you that this is a safe space no matter what
are you a voyageurs fan?
Honestly? Less and less every day.

Lisa
Jane, I know you don't think we're letting that comment about Montreal slide
I was kind of hoping you would...
Cassie
sorry, girl
we're nosy as fuck
Lisa
do you have an inside source?? what's going on in montreal?
Um, something like that.
I've just been hearing really bad things about their internal culture.
Heather
Honestly? I'm not surprised.
Caitlin
me either.
Cassie
aside from Hollander, they've always had a real old boys club kind of vibe :/
Heather
you know, I've always felt a little bad for Hollander.
Really?
Cassie
he's always seemed kinda lonely. I hope he's okay over there
I think he's been doing better recently.

Kelly
is everything okay?
Selena
Cassie?
Heather
Cass, talk to us
Cassie
Give Jane and Cait a couple more minutes
everything is okay now, but I want you to hear it from me instead of the internet
Caitlin
I'm here, but remember Jane said she sometimes works nights? She can't have her phone on her at work.
Cassie
Fuck. Right.
Okay. The Centaurs plane had to make an emergency landing tonight.
ALL THE GUYS ARE FINE. EVERYONE IS FINE
there are a couple broken phones, so no one panic if you don't hear anything, okay?
Cassie
December 2, 2019 9:12 PM
okay, I'm hoping you read the wag chat first here but
Jane, honey, Zane said that Ilya's phone broke in all the chaos
if it's okay with you, i'm gonna give him your number so Ilya can call when you're off work
December 2, 2019 9:58 PM
Yes, that's fine.
Thank you, Cassie.
of course, honey
zane says he'll call soon
December 2, 2019 10:47
Tell Zane thank you from me. I'm sure he wanted to be in bed earlier.
he said Ilya seems much better. I'm glad you guys got to talk
I can't tell you how much we appreciate it.

Hey, Jane, is Ilya okay? Wyatt said he missed practice today
Cassie
shit, that's not like him. hope everything is okay, Jane!
He's fine, don't worry!
We've been a little busy. :)
Caitlin
IS THAT WHAT I THINK IT IS
Lisa
Congratulations, Jane!
Kelly
show us your ring too!!
Oh. I don't have one yet. I proposed to him. :)
Selena
Jane!! Congratulations to you and Ilya!
Heather
Congratulations!
Kelly
is that his right hand?
It's a Russian Orthodox thing.
Caitlin
I didn't realize that Ilya is religious
He's not, really. The cross he wears was his mother's.
But I wanted him to have something that reminded him of home.
Where he came from and what we've built together.
Cassie
that's beautiful, Jane
Caitlin
gonna go cry over how cute you are
