Petr Sykora (born November 19, 1976 in Plzen, Czechoslovakia) is an ice hockey player, currently with the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim of the National Hockey League.
Sykora began his NHL career in 1995 with the New Jersey Devils. He won a Stanley Cup with the Devils (2000), and was a game away from winning a second Cup in 2001. Sykora, along with linemate Patrik Elias, developed into one of the game's premier forwards.
Traded to Anaheim in 2002 for Jeff Friesen and Oleg Tverdovsky, Sykora was instrumental in carrying the Mighty Ducks to the Stanley Cup Finals the following year. He scored the game-winning overtime goal in the fourth-longest playoff game in NHL history in 2003.
