Calculating the costs of outfitting an NHL player — it’s expensive
Vegas Golden Knights equipment manager details his job, eager to start with expansion franchise
An average NHL hockey stick costs $185, and players go through 60 to 125
sticks a year, he said. That’s as much as $23,125 in hockey sticks for
one player.
Skates, which cost $700 per pair, are equally customizable.
All of the pads on an NHL player add up to about $1,200, and with
replacements it costs a team about $21,000 per year to outfit a skater.
Goalies are even pricier, with teams paying $36,000 per season to keep
them suited up.
