What type of ICE Hockey skates are good for a beginner?

I’ve been out on the ice a couple times, and I’ve been using rental skates. I’m starting to like it, and I’m interested in buying myself a pair of skates so I can get better, and eventually move up into being a goaltender. I took it up about 3 months ago and I love it, even though I’ve only played street hockey. With that said, what kind of skates would be good beginner skates?

First off, do you want goalie skates or regular hockey skates? Goalie skated have a lower ankle like a midtop tennis shoe.
I would start out with a lowend skate before dropping $300-$500 on a pair. Here a few good low end skates, but remember you get what you pay for.
Player Skates:
CCM- VO3, VO4 VO5 (not a fan of these)
Bauer- Vapor X05, Vapor X15 or Vapor X20, Supreme One 15 and up. (Big fan of Bauer skates) also they have a better selection of lower end skates.
Easton- Stealth S7,

Goalie Skates:
Dont know much about goalie skated but I would stick with the CCM or Bauer Brands.

    well, skates aren’t made for beginners or experienced players, but you could get simple skates.
