Former Minnesota Duluth goaltender Klayton Knapp has transferred to Lindenwood, it was confirmed Monday.
Knapp, who hails from Sylvania, Ohio, just finished his freshman season with the Bulldogs, collecting a record of 6-6-2 along with a 2.67 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 16 appearances.
Before making the jump to the collegiate level, Knapp spent his time playing junior hockey in the USHL (Tri-City Storm & Green Bay Gamblers) as well as the NAHL (Austin Bruins & Bismarck Bobcats). His last year in juniors saw him spend the entire 2023-24 season in Bismarck where he went 17-8-3 while posting a 2.32 GAA and a .921 SP in 30 regular season games.
With Knapp tranferring to the Lions, he could very well see himself grab a big role with the team and run with it. Having posted solid numbers in 2024-25, Knapp flashed athleticism and the ability to track the puck through traffic - skills that will allow him to continue to find success.
