Rozsival is expected to start skating this week, Tracey Myers of CSN Chicago reports.

EDGE Analysis

Rozsival was placed on long-term IR on Oct. 6, which means he won't be eligible to return to action until Nov. 2 against the Kings. It's definitely encouraging, however, that he is expected to resume skating this week, as it bodes well for his chances of making his return to action in that matchup with Los Angeles. It's a step in the right direction, but Rozsival will need to log a number of full contact practices before re-entering the Hawks' lineup.
