I thiiiiiink we need an update on ivy saying that she'll never wear rangers colours or jersey. surely she has to show support for sasha somehow. or if it really goes against her belief system, maybe a custom islanders jersey with Sasha's name and number on the back? trying to find a loophole for our girl 🫶🏼🫶🏼
“I’m not wearing it! They’ll hang me from the rafters of UBS!”
“Babe I’m literally in the playoffs you can’t seriously not wear my jersey?” Sasha looked at her like she was crazy.
They ended up in a huge fight, how Ivy was making this an issue when it wasn’t one. That their dads didn’t even play anymore so it didn’t matter.
“You don’t get it! My dad was a freaking idol on the island, they retired thirteen and everything!”
“Well Ives don’t freaking come then! If you can’t put aside this stupid thought to support me I don’t want you there!” Sasha storms out of her apartment leaving Ivy wondering if he was right.
Ivy grew up around taking sides. Her mom worked for the devils while her dad was the golden boy of Long Island, they constantly fought over which jersey to put her in but they never let it get to this point — was she missing something?
She called her mom, explained the situation and her mom only chuckled
“Baby we didn’t care about which jersey you wore, although I’ll admit our retros were better but you hated the colour red. We were just excited you loved hockey! Maybe the rangers is a different obstacle to tackle but your dad isn’t going to be mad. This is your life now, not ours and who knows maybe when he hits the market your dad will give him a call to come to the island now he’s in management and all that and you’ll be back in orange before you know”
Ivy showed up at Madison Square Garden that Tuesday wearing a jersey — a red, white and blue jersey with Zegras and the number 11 on the back.
Youngest goalie to record a playoff shut-out. Ivy could feel the happiness radiating off of the ice and she was just happy for him.
Making her way down to the tunnel she waited for his never ending media availability to be done so she could talk to him. Watching on the TV in the room.
“So Sasha you broke Jake Ottinger’s record of youngest goalie to record a shut out in the playoffs! How are you feeling?”
He’s sweaty and smiling “It’s-it’s amazing I don’t have words I just, I love this team and I love the fans”
“We noticed you had a special guest in red, white and blue tonight” the interviewer says, the picture of you panning up on the screen “Your girlfriend, Ivy wearing a rangers jersey for the first time this season i think… reckon she had some good luck in that jersey for you?”
Ivy could see the tears collecting in Sasha’s eyes as he looked at the screen “I didn’t know… I didn’t know she’d be here tonight or wearing that so I’m kinda surprised but yeah she’s gotta wear it all the time now I guess”
“Well thanks for your time and congratulations!”
He changed quickly out of his kit and into clothes before seeking out Ivy, hoping she’d stayed.
He found her where she always waits for him. When she saw him she did a twirl “Like it?”
“I love you Ivy” he announced before walking up and lifting her off the ground into a kiss.
“This isn’t about my dad anymore Sash, this is our lives — our team”
