SAN JOSE – Rookie defenseman Sam Dickinson will make his NHL debut on Saturday when the San Jose Sharks host the Anaheim Ducks in the second game of the season for both teams.
Dickinson took rushes with Dmitry Orlov during Friday’s practice at Sharks Ice, replacing Shakir Mukhamadullin, who had two assists in just 12:45 of ice time in San Jose’s 4-3 overtime loss to the Vegas Golden Knights at SAP Center.
Dickinson, the Sharks’ top prospect on defense, and Michael Misa, who was selected second overall by the team in June, made the team’s roster out of training camp but were both healthy scratches in Thursday’s game. Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky confirmed that Dickinson will play Saturday and that Misa’s debut will happen soon.
Warsofsky would not say who would come out of the lineup with Dickinson, 19, making his NHL debut.
Warsofsky did confirm, though, that goalie Yaroslav Askarov will make his season debut Saturday. Askarov on Thursday backed up Alex Nedeljkovic, who made 27 saves but also made two critical mistakes that led to the Golden Knights’ game-tying and game-winning goal.
