Try putting an ICE CUBE in your glove.
Vuala, economical heat exchanger.

"So, why not just stick your hands in ice water to cool off? Well, it turns out that in extremely cold temperatures, the blood networks in AVAs shut down. So, the cooling down has to be controlled."

Would a cool bath accomplish the same thing?
Not an ice bath. (I can read.) Or how about a walk-in frig (a reverse sauna)? Then you don't need the glove apparatus. Or does the body as a whole need to stay warm, while cooling only the blood?

ice bath
The other problem with an ice bath is your hands or forearms get so cold they become almost numb and this is a big problem if you are using it in game situations not to mention to actually slow down the dissipation of heat short term. Also even for practise or use in the gym who wants to keep dipping their hands in ice water all the time?
