Torres (knee) hopes to begin skating in the next week or so, CSNBayArea.com's Kevin Kurz reports.

Analysis:

Torres rejoined the team last Monday in preparation for the next stage of his rehab for the removal of the ACL in his right knee. The tough winger has been limited to just 12 NHL games over the last 17 months due to knee issues, but still hopes to make an impact for the Sharks in the second half of the 2014-15 season.
