The throat guard is the clear plastic that you see goalies like Patrick Roy use to have. They are usually tied on with some skate lace.

The other option is getting a helmet with a goalie cage. This would be a bit cheaper but slightly heavier than getting a mask.
Good point about the helmet+cage combo! Ala Hasek, plus it gives a guy an excuse to try to find one of those old opaque plastic throat guards that sit flat on the collarbone/chest haha. ;D
