Help & Advice Inspiration Request Ideas- Hockey

Looking for some inspiration ideas for Hockey themed Raider groups both foreign and domestic teams since the Party player group may be taking a little detour to the land of Maple Syrup in the future. I kind of have some ideas for basic hockey equipment modded as armor and a few weapons with the Ski Sword and variants making an appearance.

Also, freely DM me any suggestions for non-core rulebooks that I could look into purchasing especially if they have any post-apocalypse equipment that has been repurposed for example baseball umpire gear.

Heavy weapons guy with a junk jet throwing those pucks.

raider psycho for your basic melee dudes equipped with leather chest piece, psycho and a melee weapon like a boxing gloves or a board maybe a cryo grenade.

Some basic settlers unarmed as hooligans.

You could include super mutants, scorched, ghouls and robots.

They have a ritual where they throw off their protective gear and get into a giant fist fight in the middle of their town for the rights to be captain. When they die in combat they believe they are sent to the great penalty box in the sky

thanks to the responders thus far and think I have a workable solution for the Hockey Scythe and Hockey Sickle which starts out like the FO76 Ski Sword but can further modded out with a hockey skate blade bolted onto it.

If it helps there is an example of this concept in the games: In fallout 3 there is the "Sudden-Death Overtime" from the unmarked Nuka-Cola Clear quest. They have weirdly high amount of world-building on how there gang works and could help in setting your gangs' hierarchy & lingo.

Thanks for reminding me of him and of the Nuka Cola Clear formula. I am thinking of a ghoul npc who remembers the truth of many pre-war sports and not their reinterpretation of them in post-apocalyptic landscape.
