Report: Jayden Perron transferring to Michigan from North Dakota
According to a report from Cam Robinson, Content Director and Director of Film Scouting at Elite Prospects, sophomore forward Jayden Perron will transfer to Michigan.
Perron, a 5-foot-9, 175-pound forward from Winnipeg, Manitoba, for North Dakota, entered the transfer portal with a do not contact designation.
Collegiate Performance at UND:
2023-2024 Season (Freshman): Perron appeared in all 40 games, tallying 11 goals and 7 assists for a total of 18 points. Notably, he scored three power-play goals and maintained a minus-1 rating.
2024-2025 Season (Sophomore): In 31 games, he recorded 10 goals and 9 assists, accumulating 19 points. Six of his goals were scored on the power play, and he had a minus-2 rating.
Career Totals at UND:
Games Played: 70
Goals: 21
Assists: 16
Total Points: 37
Power-Play Goals: 9
Prior to his collegiate career, Perron showcased his offensive capabilities with the Chicago Steel in the United States Hockey League (USHL).
USHL Performance with Chicago Steel:
2021-2022 Season: 17 goals and 28 assists (45 points) in 60 games.
2022-2023 Season: 24 goals and 48 assists (72 points) in 61 games.
Perron’s entry into the transfer portal follows a coaching change at UND, with Dane Jackson recently appointed as the new head coach. While his portal entry includes a “do not contact” designation—suggesting he may have already identified his next destination—there has been no official confirmation regarding his transfer to the University of Michigan.

Our newsroom occasionally reports stories under a byline of “staff.” Often, the “staff” byline is used when rewriting basic news briefs that originate from official sources, such as a city press release about a road closure, and which require little or no reporting. At times, this byline is used when a news story includes numerous authors or when the story is formed by aggregating previously reported news from various sources. If outside sources are used, it is noted within the story.

Bids awarded for construction of Highway 85
WATFORD CITY, N.D. (KUMV) – The North Dakota Department of Transportation awarded more than 150 million dollars in bids to continue expanding highway 85 south of Watford City.
More than $83.8 million will go to Park Construction out of Minneapolis for one segment. It covers about five and a half miles south of the Long X Bridge, going through another section of the badlands. It’s expected to be a three-year project due to the rough terrain.
The next segment covers 12 and a half miles south from the badlands to the highway 200 intersection. The winning bid went to Strata out of Grand Forks for $61.7 million. It will be a two-year project.
Funding for these projects were provided by both the state and federal government.
