"All right. Another valuable piece of equipment you want, whether you're playing indoor or outdoor, is hockey gloves. What you want to do is go to your local pro shop and look for a good pair. You don't have to get the most expensive pair, especially if you're a beginner, but you want to get some that are comfortable. They're going to be a little stiff. They're leather. You've got to break them in. That's all right. Just get used to them. The more you use them, the more comfortable they'll feel, and they'll loosen up. You'll be able to open your palms a lot better. But as long as you can grab your stick and you've got mobility, you should be good. Just make sure, I like to wear gloves that fit properly and the cuff doesn't come up too far. The farther up the cuff, it restricts your wrist, and you don't have the movement in your wrist to take a nice shot. So, a good pair of gloves, good protection, you can't go wrong. Go to your pro shop and get some."
