Hand wash in the sink? What all do you have that you can not be throw in the wash?

Where is your woman?
My woman said she's taking broccoli off the menu whatever that means.
The insides of my bag gloves are...unpleasant. I Lysol the interior of my gloves after training, but sooner than later, the accumulated blood and sweat on and in gloves becomes too strong for simple sprays.
My slip-on knee brace can be radioactive after I take it off.
My BCM hat that I wear when I lift was getting offensive, and I finally chucked it in the wash; bill be damned.

Well if you get a woman you won't have time to play hockey, problem solved!
It probably won't help already stanky gear, but I use "glove dogs" which are cotton bags filled with cedar in my boxing gloves. That seems to keep them reasonably un-stanky. You could make larger bags and fill them with cedar chips from the pet aisle for your hockey bag.
Back in my hockey days I would wash my gear in the utility sink in oxy clean. I think baking soda helped too. I would think most of the gear you listed can be washed (maybe not the gloves).
Hockey gear is by far the stankiest of all sports equipment!
Piece of bread with vanilla on it.

Your best bet is to air everything out, every single time.
I am in several homes a week that have residents who play hockey. Their gear smells like a cadavor. It's absurd how much that stuff smells. They lady of the house always complains about how much they dispise even having to look at the gear. A lot of them put the stuff in the garage to air out. Makes the garage smell like hell. Some say that leaving it in the warm sunshine helps. Some say putting it in the freezer helps. I had one customer who's son left his gear bag in his trunk for about 5 days in the summer heat. Damn near had to sell the car. The smell was so horrid she left the trunk open for a few days and it still smelled.
Glove dogs.
They help. Anti-microbial febreeze stuff for sports gear.. All my old sparing gear was wiped down with lysol wipes after use.. glove dogs in the gloves.. cup let to air out..
Being diligent about letting it dry before putting it away is a good thing as well.
