I think this falls in with how I feel about reading WIP fanfic. Sounds weird, but bear with me. I like having a payoff for my feelings investment at a (relatively) defined point in the future. Cliffhangers are not my friend, but I can't help myself.
Plus Coach is doing things I recognise from people in my life. Maybe he's on his way to acceptance, and you're probably right that the fact they've not spoken is probably lifelong (or at least somewhat ongoing). We've seen them talking Hockey before iirc, but my initial reaction was definitely gut-churning anger/fear combo. You know, at least until someone writes some fix-it, or we get another update to clear matters up somewhat.

If I'm wrong, we still have fic.
