Rocky Dundas (born January 30, 1967 in Regina, Saskatchewan) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey right winger, and now CEO of a Christian Ministry in Toronto, Ontario. He played 5 games in the National Hockey League for the Toronto Maple Leafs during the 1989–90 season. The rest of his professional hockey career, which lasted from 1987 to 1990, was spent in the American Hockey League.

Hockey career

As a Junior, Dundas spent four full seasons in the Western Hockey League with three different teams. His top junior season was his third, with the Spokane Chiefs in 1985-86, when he scored 31 goals and 101 points. The trade to his third junior team, the Medicine Hat Tigers in 1987, was his most rewarding, as a result of winning the 1987 Memorial Cup championship over the favoured host Oshawa Generals at season's end.

The Montreal Canadiens selected Dundas in the third round of the 1985 entry Draft (#47 pick), and he soon found himself playing in their system with the American Hockey League's Sherbrooke Canadiens. Unable to crack the Canadiens roster during his tenure, Dundas left that organization and signed with the rival Toronto Maple Leafs as a free agent on October 4, 1989. Though most of his season was spent with their AHL affiliate in Newmarket, Dundas got to play at the NHL level with Toronto, suiting up for 5 games during the 1989-90 season. Dundas recorded one point, but registered 14 penalty minutes.

Dundas left professional hockey following the 1989–90 season to become a full-time pastor.[1]

Pastoral Work

Dundas first worked as a youth pastor at Don Valley Bible Chapel, then Bayview Glen Church, both on the northern fringe of the city. Dundas went on to become the co-lead pastor at Summit Community Church in Richmond Hill, Ontario, and later worked with World Vision Canada. In August 2025, he will assume the role of Chief Executive Office for The Scott Mission in Toronto. [2]
