Michigan State men’s ice hockey goaltender Drew DeRidder entered the transfer portal four days after MSU’s season ended. He has now announced that North Dakota will be his home for his final season of eligibility.
DeRidder helped Michigan State fight its way to a fringe tournament spot in late-December, but those hopes were halted after the Spartans lost senior Mitchell Lewandowski. MSU proceeded to lose 15 of its final 16 games.
Over the course of his career, DeRidder had a .916 save percentage and allowed 2.95 goals per game. He played his best hockey during his last season, including a 48-save performance against Wisconsin.
