Sýkora 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. Sýkora, along with linemate Patrik Eliáš, developed into one of the game's premier forwards.
Traded to Anaheim in 2002 for Jeff Friesen and Oleg Tverdovsky, Sýkora was instrumental in carrying the Mighty Ducks to the Stanley Cup Finals the following year, when they lost to the Devils and his former teammates. He scored the game-winning overtime goal in the fourth-longest playoff game in NHL history in 2003.
