Timeline
Petr Sýkora (born November 19, 1976) is a Czech former professional ice hockey right winger who played in the National Hockey League (NHL) for the New Jersey Devils, Mighty Ducks of Anaheim, New York Rangers, Edmonton Oilers, Pittsburgh Penguins, and Minnesota Wild.
In the 1995 NHL Entry Draft, Sýkora was drafted in the first round, 18th overall, by the New Jersey Devils.
He began his NHL career in 1995–96 with New Jersey, posting 42 points in his rookie campaign, as well as being chosen as the NHL Rookie of the Month for December.
His career took off in his fourth NHL season, recording a breakout 72 points, which still stands as the second highest total of his career.
He is a two-time Stanley Cup champion, having won with the Devils in 2000 and the Penguins in 2009.
Sýkora played in six Stanley Cup Finals in his NHL career.
Before being drafted, Sýkora spent several seasons in the Czechoslovak Extraliga and the International Hockey League (IHL).
As a Cleveland Lumberjack, Sýkora became the youngest player ever to play in the IHL at 17 years and 71 days.
He has also played for the IHL's Detroit Vipers.
As part of the Devils' effective "A-line," with Patrik Eliáš and Jason Arnott, he helped lead the team to a Stanley Cup in 2000 against the Dallas Stars.
However, in the sixth and deciding game in Dallas, Sýkora suffered an injury and ended up in the hospital.
When the Devils won the game to win the Stanley Cup, Devils Head Coach Larry Robinson and linemate Patrik Eliáš wore Sýkora's jersey for him.
The team also brought the trophy to Sýkora in the hospital.
The next season, Sýkora and the Devils were only a game away from repeating as Stanley Cup champions, but lost in the seventh game to the Colorado Avalanche.
That year, Sýkora recorded career highs with 35 goals, 46 assists and 81 points.
Benefiting from his high-caliber linemates, Sýkora enjoyed his best offensive season since 2000–01, tallying 63 points.
Although Sýkora won the trophy with the Devils in 2000, he was unable to lift the Stanley Cup after a hit sent him to the hospital the night of the victory.
However, the next season, Sýkora's offensive production dropped to just 48 points, and the before the start of the 2002–03 season, he was traded to the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim for forward Jeff Friesen and defenceman Oleg Tverdovsky.
In his first season with Anaheim, Sýkora appeared in his third Stanley Cup Finals, but lost to his former Devils teammates.
En route to the finals, he scored the game-winning, quintuple-overtime goal in the fourth-longest playoff game in NHL history in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semi-finals against the Dallas Stars.
While the 2004–05 NHL lockout was in effect, Sýkora played for Metallurg Magnitogorsk of the Russian Superleague (RSL), scoring 31 points in 45 games.
As NHL play resumed in 2005–06, Sýkora requested to be traded from Anaheim and on January 9, 2006, the New York Rangers acquired Sýkora in exchange for young defenceman Maxim Kondratiev and the return of a fourth-round draft pick the Rangers had previously traded to Anaheim.
After completing the season with New York, it was announced on July 7, 2006, that Sýkora would not return to the Rangers, and he was subsequently signed to a one-year deal with the Edmonton Oilers.
On a line with countryman Aleš Hemský, Sýkora maintained the previous few seasons' scoring output and managed 53 points.
In July 2007, Sýkora signed a two-year contract with the Pittsburgh Penguins as an unrestricted free agent.
After initially playing with Sidney Crosby, Sýkora was later lined up with Evgeni Malkin after Crosby suffered an injury towards the end of the season.
Reaching the 2008 Stanley Cup Finals against the Detroit Red Wings, Sýkora scored a triple-overtime goal on the powerplay in Game 5 after previously telling on-ice reporter Pierre McGuire he would score the game-winner.
With the Penguins down 3–1 in the series, Sýkora's goal forced a Game 6.
However, the Penguins could not stave off elimination for a second straight game and lost the Cup to Detroit.
The series marked Sýkora's fourth time playing in a Stanley Cup Finals.
The following season, on December 11, 2008, Sýkora scored his eighth, ninth and tenth goals of the season for his first career NHL hat-trick against the New York Islanders at Mellon Arena.
Sýkora had previously recorded 38 career two-goal games in his career, the all-time NHL record for most two-goal games without a single hat-trick.
Later that season, on April 7, 2009, Sýkora scored his 300th career NHL goal in a 6–4 victory against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
In early May 2009, Sýkora began struggling with a shoulder injury.
He finished his second season in Pittsburgh with 25 goals and 46 points over 76 games.
Bolstering their lineup at the trade deadline, the Penguins acquired wingers Bill Guerin and Chris Kunitz, resulting in decreased ice time for Sýkora.
During the 2009 playoffs, he was regularly made a healthy scratch.
He played in seven of the Penguins' 24 post-season games as the team returned to the Stanley Cup Finals against the Red Wings for the second straight year.
Sýkora made his first appearance of the series in Game 6, but injured his right foot blocking a shot six minutes into the contest.
Sidelined for the deciding Game 7, he forced his swelled foot into a skate to join the Penguins on the ice for their post-game celebration after defeating the Red Wings 2–1.
