“Heated Rivalry” costars Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams reunited on “Saturday Night Live” on Feb. 28. During a sketch filmed outside the Rink at Rockefeller Center, Storrie played a guy on a bachelor party, ice skating and having fun with his friends.
Meanwhile, a couple (Tommy Brennan and Veronika Slowikowska) discussed their relationship — he proposed, she said no, and they got into a fight. However, he couldn’t help but get distracted by the group having fun — Storrie, Mikey Day and Ben Marshall.
Around midway through the sketch, Hudson then came skating out on the ice to an excited Storrie. “Sorry I’m late, fellas, but I have a serious question: Who’s read the skate their butts off?” he asked.
Later, the group skated in a four-person train, and Williams says it’s the most fun he’s ever had. At the end of the sketch, Brennan hopped into the rink, ditching his now-ex to celebrate with the guys he didn’t know.
A few moments later on “SNL,” Williams came back out to introduce Mumford and Sons, alongside Storrie.
The duo is best known for playing hockey duo Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander on the steamy series, produced by Crave. The hockey drama is based on Rachel Reid’s “Game Changers” book series.
“Now, some of you may have seen literally all of me on my show. It’s a show that has taught a lot of people about hockey, and it’s taught a lot of straight women that their sexuality is actually gay guy,” Storrie said when he opened the show. He later brought out both the women’s and men’s Olympic hockey teams.
“I got my teeth knocked out in the finals. Does that happen in your show?” Jack Hughes asked Storrie, who cheekily responded, “Metaphorically.”
“Heated Rivalry,” which aired on HBO Max, became a massive hit for the streamer in its first season. The second season will begin production in August, with an expected release date of April 2027.
