Yeah, but I live in NorCal. There's a lot of roller hockey close by, but I would have to travel a bit for ice hockey *I think*. I know there's an ice junior league in my hometown... I'll have to see if there's an adult one too.

And yea, I just looked at like the first google hit for goalie equipment and it was 1k for the pads and 200 for the blocker/glove. Hmm...

Ice hockey boomed in california in the late 90's. It shouldn't be that hard to find a rink.

I know a rink, but all they offer is just a weekday pick-up game. This is also 45 minutes away. There's an inline hockey place that offers hockey like 5 out of the 7 days and has 4 different skill level leagues which is like 15 minutes away.

I would rather play ice than inline, just seems a lot better. However, there's not a whole lot of close options. Everything is in the bay area.
