Summary
The locker room chatter started up almost at once, providing a screen of background noise. Zhenya sat down beside the ghost. “I’m captain. Evgeni Malkin.”
“Sidney Crosby,” the ghost said. He didn’t offer his hand, which made Zhenya think he had been dead for a while, long enough to shed the ingrained habits of the living. “I’m, uh. Is it really 2018?”

Summary
Crosby, lingering nearby, gave Zhenya a tentative smile. They were all smiling, everyone in the room, looking at Zhenya and Crosby and dreaming big dreams, the same dreams that had pried Zhenya out of Magnitogorsk and launched him halfway around the world. Zhenya knew what was expected of him, him and Crosby together, and why not? Why couldn’t they?
“Yes,” he said in English, watching Crosby’s face, and saw the moment when Crosby’s smile turned real.

Summary
Sid stepped up. “Move,” he said to Bylsma, who gave him a shocked look but got out of the way, and then Geno was glaring down at him, splotchy and dripping sweat, haloed in blue light. Sid didn’t know what to do.
“What, Sid,” Geno snapped, and Sid grabbed Geno’s sweater to yank him down and slapped him hard across the face.

Summary
Sid was smiling at her. He was a nice guy. He was trying. He had brought her flowers. He wanted her to like him, and Anya wanted to like him, she wanted everything to work out, for Zhenya to be happy, and for her and Sid to get along. She thought they probably would. Zhenya loved him for a reason.
“Of course,” she said. She believed it then, watching his smile. “I think we’ll be friends.”

Summary
Zhenya stared straight ahead and waited for the elevator to drop into motion. Beside him, Sid was silent, warm, breathing, smelling faintly of cologne, and that same awful choking miserable fury and grief clogged Zhenya’s throat again. He hadn’t expected to encounter Sid again so soon.
