Thanks guys it actually went really well today. He played two 20min games and gave up 2 in the first game and 1 in the second game getting 2 victories. His teamates love him and cleared out all the rebounds, dove to block shots, and ran a kid or two over to keep his crease clear. Not to mention they scored a ton of goals. He played sound positionaly like I had been teaching him. Stayed square to the shooters and huged the posts when supposed to. made a some stick saves etc. He got mobed by the team after the games, but he didnt like being on the bottom of the pile 6 year olds. We got real lucky one of the dads from another team had a pair of 20 inch pads and let him use them. helped out a lot. They are narrower and shorter so he had good movement.

When it was all over he said something that made me very happy. "daddy, I dont want to play goal anymore. I want to skate fast and score goals. I really want those skates like yours." 370 supras it is If he decides he wants to play goal again I will let him play roller hockey goal or when he starts playing summer.
