PerJub my previous answer got lost :^(

... and yes, you could share as per previous "best answer"

 

OR

 

you could take the URL you are using and add ?st=60 to watch from 1 minute in - i.e. 60 seconds from the start time 

 

I would give you a demo, but people seem to be unable to share Stream videos externally, and even Microsoft appears to be using the usual hack of downloading their video from stream and uploading it to youTube, even in their GA launch of Stream -  hmm, not good :^[

p.s. This url hack is the same kind of thing youTube does - except you use a ?t instead of ?st,
e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEAwbnMs8ts&t=3600
