On The Road: Sam Dickinson [Episode 7]

In the finale of On The Road, Jeff Marek sits down with Sam
Dickinson, one of the most decorated junior defensemen of his era
and the newest first-round pick of the San Jose Sharks for a
rain-soaked cottage-country conversation. Fresh off a Memorial
Cup championship, a CHL Defenseman of the Year season, and a
dominant run with the London Knights, Dickinson lifts the curtain
on his journey—from Toronto Marlies days, to being traded to
London, to skating alongside NHL stars in Muskoka, and stepping
into Sharks rookie camp for the first time.
