My advice....
The skating lessons things is a good idea. For those of us who started playing later in life the hard part of hockey is the skating while stickhandling. Getting the skating down first will pay huge dividends.
Next-I would start with roller hockey. The Investment is going to be peanuts compared to Ice not to mention he can practice in the driveway. If he tries and gets bored your not out the dough you would be with Ice hockey.
I think Ill be down this road in a few years as well and trust me-hip jr is going to start on roller blades.
