Sam Dickinson told SHD that the San Jose Sharks delivered his housing letter to him this morning. <\/p>\n
What is the housing letter?<\/p>\n
According to<\/a> Mark Lazarus of The Athletic, the letter is\u00a0a CBA-mandated notification on team letterhead.<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s basically the letter you get when you\u2019re told you are staying with your NHL team for the rest of your year. You\u2019re no longer being bounced up and down. You get the commitment to get a place, and if you do get sent down after that, then the team has to cover it,\u201d Elliotte Friedman said on<\/a> his 32 Thoughts podcast.<\/p>\n Advertisement.

Now Dickinson has permission to find permanent housing in San Jose. <\/p>\n There is still a chance he can return to the London Knights. As Friedman states, if Dickinson goes back, the Sharks would then have to pay for his housing, even if he isn\u2019t living there.<\/p>\n With all that in mind, it is doubtful the San Jose Sharks would send Dickinson back to the OHL.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s been pretty good so far. [Dickinson] played a good game the other night. [He] deserves to be here. He\u2019s earned it,\u201d Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky<\/a> said.<\/p>\n Advertisement.

Misa has only played seven games, meaning there is still time for the Sharks to decide if they want to send him back to the OHL without burning a year of his ELC.<\/p>\n Dickinson and Misa have shared many experiences during their rookie season. Dickinson said the San Jose Sharks\u2019 No. 2 pick reached out to him right away when he found out he was playing his 10th career game. <\/p>\n \u201cJust the fact that we\u2019re going through this together, and we\u2019re in the same sort of situation. He was really happy for me when I found out I was playing. He was one of the first guys that came up to me,\u201d Dickinson said. \u201cI\u2019m sure when he gets to 10, I\u2019ll do the same thing.\u201d<\/p>\n Dickinson skated with Shakir Mukhamadullin at practice on Tuesday. The team will now fly to Seattle to face the Kraken on Wednesday.<\/p>\n Advertisement.
