    Summary

    Nikolai Mikhailovich Kudryavtsev is drafted to the NHL in 2004 and signed to the New York Rangers.
    Along the way he makes friends, falls in love, tries to fall out of love, and meets an opera singer. The last is probably the most important, in the long term.

    Summary

    When an NHL team loses far more often than it wins, a smart general manager will trigger a rebuild, a complete overhaul of the team's roster, strategy, and personnel.

    Generally speaking, there are five steps to any rebuild.

    1. Identify the problems
    2. Excise the rot
    3. Acquire better assets
    4. Set a new foundation
    5. Start praying

    A rebuild is a brutal, necessary business decision for the survival of the team.

    Nobody knows more about surviving brutal, necessary decisions than Kent Parson.

    Summary

    In 2009 Kent "living Taylor Swift song" Parson goes first in the draft, moves to Nevada, and starts an NHL career that includes one Stanley Cup win, one league lockout, a lot of media manipulation, bad blood with several teams, a captaincy, big city politics, and the pressure that comes with some questionable sponsors for a club located in the gambling heart of the United States.

    Meanwhile, the Las Vegas Aces learn how to work around the ghost of Jack Zimmermann.

    (Not literally.)

    Summary

    "Not because he is gay," Ilya says as if to a child. "Because Scott Hunter is seven million years old. It's not right. He should not be with someone so young."

    Shane throws him a tiny, perfect smirk. "When Scott Hunter was his age, he wasn't even born."

    "Exactly! You get it, Hollander," Ilya says, using the excuse to throw an arm around Shane's shoulders. "We must stage intervention. Cannot let nice young man be cradle-snatched."
