Building a foundation firmly based on the love of yourself and what you do.
“Having a strong foundation, focused on your happiness and self worth, is so important in building a person’s game. Even more importantly, it’s priceless in your life.”

“When I met Dusty, my life as a goalie and as a person, were in rough shape. I had no idea how to play goal anymore and I also didn’t know who I was as a person either.
I would view myself as a person based on how I played in the game last night.
Dusty quickly taught me that the most important quality is to enjoy life! Dusty never gave up on me and always believed in me. Dusty’s positive attitude, attention to detail, and knowledge of the game helped take my game to new levels. Working with Dusty has allowed me to succeed in every environment I’m put in, whether that’s in hockey or in life.
Despite both of us going our separate ways with the Kings, we still work together to this day. Whether it’s coaching advice I need that day, or just some words of encouragement, Dusty always has the answer that makes me ready to perform as a goalie and as a person! “

“I thank Dusty for reviving my career. He is a very good goalie coach and his understanding of goaltending isn’t solely on physical abilities of a goaltender, but he also excels in understanding the mental aspect of the game. It was in this area, that he especially helped me get back my game and my career.
His reach goes far beyond hockey. Dusty’s understanding of the mental part of the game is exceptional. He understands the person and then helps goalies reach their potential both on and off the ice.
I feel privileged to call Dusty my friend. I would not have achieved the stuff I did in the hockey world without him. I can’t thank Dusty enough for his help in hockey and in my life. Thank you Dusty.”
— Peter Budaj (Retired NHL Goaltender)

“My dad had a way of keeping my head in the right place no matter what situation. A massive part of the game is mental and his ability to get you through any mental or emotional issues in your game, is what sets him apart from other coaches.
He always wanted me to have fun, and when hockey is fun, you play like you know you can.”
— Jonah Imoo (Dusty’s son)
