Dickinson helped Czechia gain a 2-1 lead in the first period by accidentally directing in a power play goal. Jakub Stancl took a shot from the point that rebounded off the back glass and right in front.
Unfortunately for Dickinson and Team Canada, the puck was on edge, causing Dickinson to mishit it past Canadian goalie Carter George.
Dickinson had one assist through the four round-robin games. Czechia bounced Canada from the tournament in the quarterfinals for the second straight year. The Czechs scored a power play goal with 39 seconds left in the third period after Canada rallied to tie the game at three.
