I originally read this in February 2022, and I reread it in March 2024.

I love this book.  Mickey's such a great character, the poor guy is struggling with so much and is only just starting to figure out who he might be outside hockey. Icebreaker has some of the best depression rep I've read which honestly hit a bit too close to home at times.

Also excellent rivals-to-lovers and found family.
