Petr Sýkora (born December 21, 1978 in Pardubice, Czechoslovakia) is a professional ice hockey player in the National Hockey League, and is the younger brother of former NHL defenceman Michal Sýkora.

He was drafted by the Detroit Red Wings in the 1997 NHL Entry Draft in the 3rd round, 76th overall. On July 14, 1998, the Red Wings traded him (along with future considerations and a third-round pick in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft) to the Nashville Predators for Doug Brown. Petr suited up for two games for the Predators in the 1998–99 season and didn't play in the NHL again until the 2005–06 NHL season. That season, he played ten games for the Washington Capitals, ultimately leaving the United States after finding the cultural transition difficult.

In his time away from the NHL, Sýkora has played for HC Pardubice in the Czech Extraliga.
