Summary
Kent Parson has two Stanley Cups. After the first one, he signed a deal to become the face of Harley-Davidson's latest ad campaign, and nearly every city in America was bombarded with billboards of a shirtless teenage Kent lounging on a motorcycle, staring out at his audience with bedroom eyes and a mischievous smirk.
Kent Parson has two Olympic gold medals. After the second one, he got his own G.I. Joe action figure because they wanted the all-American boy to be embodied by the quintessential American toy.
Tater has none of those things, but he does have a career that's hanging by a thread, a team that won the Stanley Cup without him, and a boyfriend who's trying his best, even if it's not working.
Or, an AU Tater's knee injury during the Cup playoffs ends up being much more serious, and how he and Kent struggle to navigate the ensuing turmoil.

Summary
Kent Parson arrives in Vegas days before his eighteenth birthday. Devastated, angry, and hurt beyond measure at Jack's suicide attempt and the new distance between himself and the Zimmermann family, he's determined to never allow anyone close to him again.
But as he unintentionally grows closer to his teammates and to Swoops in particular, he finds himself questioning if it really is too late to start over, and if this time, it might just be worth the risk.
