i just shattered both bones in my right wrist playing ice hockey... i'm typing this left handed now. took up the sport last year at the age of 37. best team sport i've ever played. i got all my shit cheap and new here's how.
shop online at hockeymonkey, hockeygiant, or totalhockey.net
buy the top of the line stuff that's 2 years old and on close-out.
find a shop near you- try some of the stuff for fit and buy something there so your not abusing them as a personal fitting room.
i got sherwoods best pants for 59.00 and 952 ccm skates for 119.
don't but those stupid 120$ sticks i've had my ccm stick (22$) for a year now. don't buy huge shoulder pads or elbow pads it will hamper your stickwork. wear a wrist guard on your lower hand where you'll get hacked the most- my wrist guard probably kept my bone from worse damage (as if 3 pins and a plate weren't bad enough.)
