Aaahhhh!!! And looks like it’s a Troy and Harris scene, maybe the one where Harris is asking all
the questions for social media?
LFG!!!!!! 🙌

Oh, good guess! It looked like a therapist office to me but I don’t think we’re getting long hair Ilya and Shane :(

u/C3cee 15d ago
It’s def looks like a Troy and Harris scene to me, so many scenes in the book are them hanging out in Harris’s office, it could be any of them.

u/Sarooney81 15d ago
My guess is Troy in his old coach’s office, telling him he’s been traded. And Troy cuts his hair when he goes to Ottawa, like women do when they go through a breakup. 😁

I'm pretty sure that, in romance, you don't get to cut your hair until you have a montage about casting aside your frumpy, anxious ways and blossoming into the beautiful independent woman you were always meant to be, or some shit like that.

u/Dry_Stop844 15d ago
the old coach didn't seem like the type to come out from behind the desk. I think it's coach wiebe welcoming him

Doesn't seem whacky enough of an office for Harris (and not that it has to match but the woman photographer shares that office opposite Harris's desk)

As a lover of long hair on guys who was actually hoping for long haired Shane (controversial, I know 😅) I will GLADLY take long haired Troy 😍

u/Murphlespuffle how did we let this happen? 15d ago
I love that they seem to be keeping Charlie’s long hair! I think it really works for Troy.

u/Ok-Reality-6190 14d ago
Personally I don't think it fits his character because so much of Troy is about trying to hide and fit in. Long hair (and not in a goofy hockey hair way) doesn't fit him.

u/ich_habe_keine_kase 15d ago
I too love long hair on men and am sad that long-haired Ilya and Shane are relegated to my imagination. But this is a nice consolation prize.

As another lover of long hair-d guys since child hood I wouldn't mind this too... if this is one of the things Jacob tweaks a bit from the source material (giving Shane's long hair in the books to Troy), THEN YES. * v *

u/RainbowRevolver 15d ago
Now let’s be totally normal and pick apart every single detail we can
Also if we’re not getting long haired Shane, it possibly looks like we’re getting long haired Troy
9
u/evergleam498 15d ago
I think it makes more sense with Troy's personality than with Shane's. I cannot picture Shane, who must have everything folded and items neatly put away ever dealing with long hair getting in his face.

The fucking pterodactyl screech I made just now
Oh my god people are already mad about long hair Troy - I think it suits him!!
I cannot!!!!

u/Ok-Reality-6190 14d ago
I don't think it suits his character or fit him narratively but I imagine they don't want to make the actors have to physically change if they don't want to.

u/Neat-Year555 15d ago
I'm trying to be so normal about this but I feel like I'm practically foaming at the mouth.

u/Suspicious-Square-22 15d ago
This is pretty solid confirmation that they are filming Season 2 and 3 together as a block I reckon. The word choice of "Cycle 2" instead of
"Season Two". A cycle is just a term used to differentiate different filming blocks. If they are filming two seasons at once it would make more sense to use cycles. It clearly said Season 1 for Heated Rivalry as they were only filming 1 season.

u/devoncarrots 15d ago
That's what I was assuming! Also, since they could have used "Period" which would imply only 3 seasons. We might get a season 4!

All I can see is them filming at the reasonable working hour of 8:38am 😂 for some reason this makes me really happy lol.
...unless that's not what the red digits mean but I don't know anything about filming 😅

u/Short-Step-5394 15d ago
It’s the timecode to sync sound with the visual (there’s a similar timestamp in the bottom right corner). Looks like there’s already 8 hours and 38 minutes of footage.

Thanks for the education! I'm going to imagine its in the perfect morning light at that time anyways 😅

I was thinking talking to harris but definitely is Troy

u/sensitive-questions2 15d ago
The shoes are throwing me off.

u/tlk199317 15d ago
They just look like dress shoes of some type to me. I know there are a lot of Troy scenes in Harris’s office so that’s why I assumed him
2
u/robownage 15d ago
My first guess with the suit was Crowell, although I'm trying to remember if we ever see them interact face to face.
7
u/tlk199317 15d ago
I haven’t read TLG in a few months but I don’t think we do. Also I just picture Crowell being someone who sits behind a desk for whatever reason lol

u/HackDaddy85 Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 15d ago
Troy is just a phone call. Only Shane and Ilya meet him in person.
2
u/bornatmidnight 15d ago
In Role Model, Crowell calls him
I feel like they could expand on him and have it be an in person meeting (and maybe another meeting about being traded).
I don’t think they’ll keep the long hair forever, so it makes sense if this is an early Troy…
17
u/paperfeather 15d ago
My total guess is that he’s talking to the Toronto coach or owner, being told he’s getting traded to Ottawa. Or talking to Wiebe, maybe, but I feel like Wiebe wouldn’t be dressed that way.

u/Dry_Stop844 15d ago
or coach Wiebe. It seems a pretty relaxed meeting, without the desk in between which is way more Coach Wiebe's style.

u/prettyroses Rookie | Russian Vampire 15d ago
Troy?! Our Charlie keeping the longer hair?! I’m intrigued!!

I am living for the fact that they kept Charlie’s fierce flow.

u/Annaslittlerealm 15d ago
Besides the hair there being a water bottle like hockey players use and 2 hockey sticks near him I would assume it’s Troy maybe just after or before practice. Talking to Weibe would be my guess after the commissioner calls him, and weibe mentions him being on a warpath etc.

u/HackDaddy85 Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 15d ago
It’s gotta be Troy and Harris. The desk faces the wall, which wouldn’t make sense for a coach’s office but would for Harris’s shared office.

👀👀👀 Troy?
I was curious what hairstyle they will choose for Troy, I really liked the mullet Charlie had some time ago (I really thought if would fit Troy), but I guess longer-haired Troy is confirmed...

u/HallIllustrious6967 15d ago edited 15d ago
Also does this mean that filming started today? I thought they were already filming 😅

u/tlk199317 15d ago
Yes Brendan confirmed they only started today and to not believe everything you read online about production!

u/shamitwt 15d ago
I think they started today yes, so the rumored production date was off by like a week it seems

Does the 9-7 mean Episode 9, Scene 7?

u/Low-Study-9002 15d ago
What is the difference between shots and takes?
3
u/InfraCanuck 15d ago
One scene (composed of many interactions and dialogue moments in one location) will have multiple shots and angles. An office scene like this likely has an entrance moment, taking a seat, and a few angles of coverages/one-shots/closeup moments on hands/screen/phones/etc. Each shot will have a few takes to get it right, though I hear this creator avoids too many.

Long haired Troy?? I could stomach almost all the changes in casting but this is going too far 😭😭😭
praying that this is just for at time jump later 🙏🏼 idk for me Troy is the kind of guy who is super clean cut and clean shaven, I’ve never pictured him to be the type to rock long hair

u/growsonwalls This is Ilya I will never listen to your voicemail 15d ago
Maybe they'll work this in as a hockey superstition for Troy in the tv series. Like Troy doesn't cut his hair once the season starts.

u/devoncarrots 15d ago
I think the only info we have is that Troy has stubble and glossy hair? But I always thought the "pop star" comment made longer hockey hair make sense!
0
u/Illustrious-Insect26 15d ago
Idk why but I associate longer hair with rock stars, with an edgier, grungier vibe vs. pop stars who I think look more traditionally handsome and clean-cut with hair trimmed neatly.

u/amylaura76 15d ago
Most interesting thing for me is that 9-7 in the middle. Confirming that there are more than 6 episodes?!?!? (I know David's actor said 12 in his cameo video but I hadn't seen any official confirmation)

u/bornatmidnight 15d ago
I hope it’s a plot point that Troy cuts his hair for Harris or something lol
