That 10th game also marked a significant milestone, as it meant the Sharks will be burning the first year of his entry-level contract and he will likely spend the entire season in the NHL.<\/p>\n<p>A centering pass by Will Smith found Dickinson in open space in front of the net. Dickinson fired off a quick one-timer from between the face-off circles to tie the game at 2-2.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was a hell of a pass, right before it we made eye contact, and at that point, I think I knew it was coming,\u201d Dickinson said postgame about Smith\u2019s assist. \u201cI think he put it through two or three sticks, and had a couple guys wave at it and miss. That\u2019s just the kind of passes he can make. It\u2019s lucky for me that I get to receive them and not defend them.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">SAM DICKINSON \ud83e\udd88<\/p>\n<p>He ties it late in the third with his first NHL goal! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/tBlDHPrwJy\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/tBlDHPrwJy<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 NHL (@NHL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NHL\/status\/1985188378908741851?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">November 3, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Dickinson was immediately mobbed by his teammates in celebration.
