Petr Tatíček (born 22 September 1983) is a Czech professional ice hockey centre who is currently playing for ERC Ingolstadt of the Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL). He previously played for the Florida Panthers of the National Hockey League.

Playing career

Tatíček was drafted 9th overall by the Panthers in the 2002 NHL Entry Draft from the OHL's Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds and managed to play just three games for the Panthers during the 2005–06 NHL season, going pointless. On 9 March 2006, Tatíček was traded to the Pittsburgh Penguins for Richard Jackman, but never played for them, spending the remainder of the season with their American Hockey League affiliate the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins.

He then signed with the Washington Capitals as a free agent, but only played one game for their farm team the Hershey Bears before returning to the Czech Extraliga with HC Kladno. Later in the season, he moved to HC Davos in Switzerland's Nationalliga A.

On 22 July 2014, Tatíček signed as a free agent with German club, ERC Ingolstadt to a one-year contract. During the 2014–15 season, having quickly adapted to the DEL and among the teams top scoring line, Tatíček was signed to a three-year contract extension to remain in Ingolstadt on 23 November 2014.[1]
