TESTIMONIALS

“As staff goalie coach for the Anaheim Wildcats I had the privilege of working with Connor Duffy throughout the 12/13 season. Connor and I had no previous relationship and were introduced during tryouts. Immediately, Connor stood out as a confident, strong contender, with a sound technical foundation and a very patient demeanor. It goes without saying; Connor made our ’00 AAA team and went on to play two seasons with the Wildcats TIER 1. Working with Connor was an absolute pleasure! A very good listener with fire in his eyes, Connor was very easy to teach. He soaked everything up like a sponge, and put it to use even faster. Throughout the season, I watched Connor grow consistently at an exponential rate, which for a coach is the ultimate reward! Connor wasn’t just a great student, but a great teammate as well. Friendly and always smiling Connor was quick to make friends and keep them. In my experience, probably the best relationship between two goalies on a team I’ve ever seen. Wherever hockey takes Connor, I know he will succeed. His drive, work ethic, and determination are what coaches are looking for.  His confidence, patience and skills are what every team needs.” — Gene Galyuk, Anaheim Wildcats, GGAhockey.com

“Connor is a very talented young goaltender. He is always prepared for the game and extraordinarily focused. He is calm in the net and very efficient, moving around the crease filling out the whole net. Connor is not affected by the outcome of the game and is constantly alert and prepared for the new developing situation. He is not easily distracted from the goal at task. He is very friendly and supportive with his teammates.” — Tomas Kapusta, Club Head Coach and AAA Director

“I had the pleasure of coaching Connor two seasons ago as he helped our team compete with the best teams in our state with his outstanding goaltending. Connor gave our team a chance to win every game he played in. His focus and preparation allows him to compete at a high level, which also enables him to be consistent from game to game. Connor is a big goalie who has great movement, is athletic all the while being technically sound. Lastly, Connor is a fierce competitor in the net who plays his best in big games and who any coach would like to have on his team.” — Darryl Tiveron, Jr. Ducks Bantam 99 AAA Coach

“I coached Connor when he was in Atom Division(8U) and have had the opportunity to see him grow and mature as I am the General Manager of one of the facilities he continues to compete at. Connor possesses three characteristics that define his hockey attributes: Passion, of which he gained at a young age, to practice and compete with efforts to improve and reach new accomplishments; Dedication, to be active in tournaments, teams, and practices to attain the skills needed to grow in his position; Commitment, to his passion and dedication to himself and the sport he loves. It has truly been my pleasure to see Connor grow into the hockey player he is today, and I look forward to seeing his continued growth.” — Eddie Limbaga, General Manager, The Rinks-Irvine Inline; CEO, Hybrid Hockey Industries; Board Member Western Inline Hockey Association
