New tariffs on Canadian imports could send hockey gear prices soaring—sticks, skates, and even helmets now costing twice as much. With families already spending big on ice time and coaching, these hikes threaten to push kids out of the game. The White House slapped a 50% tariff on over 500 Canadian goods, including custom goalie equipment still made in Canada. As hockey’s popularity surges and more kids join, rising costs could stall that momentum. Economists warn even small price jumps might deter families, while companies face tough choices: stay put or move production abroad. The sports industry is urging the government to reverse course before the sport’s growth stalls.
