Playing career

Junior

Palát began his ice hockey career in his native Czech Republic with HC Frýdek-Místek.[1]

QMJHL

Following the 2007–08 season, Palát was drafted by the

Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) European Draft when he was 19.[4]

Palát joined the Voltigeurs for the 2009–10 season, which was also the first season former NHLer Denis Gauthier served as a coach. Although Gauthier was originally sceptical of Palát's ability to play in the QMJHL, he was named to the team's roster and finished the season with 40 points in 59 games.[4] After going undrafted again in the 2010 NHL entry draft, Palát returned to the Voltigeurs for the 2010–11 season.[5] Palát received early recognition from the league after recording six points over two games in mid-October to help lift the Voltigeurs to second place in the overall standings.[6] He was recognized again later that month with the Star of the Week honour after recording seven points over four games.[7] By 4 November, Palát had accumulated 11 goals and 13 assists over 24 games.[8] He continued to score goals through November and led all import players with 38 points by 24 November.[9] Palát was named the QMJHL's Third Star of the Week for the week ending on 28 November after scoring four goals and two assists over two games.[10] The following month, during a game against the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies, Palát and teammate Sean Couturier became the second and third QMJHL players to reach 50-points in the season.[11] As such, he was recognized as the QMJHL's First Star of the Week[12] and strongly considered for CHL Player of the Week.[13] By 24 December, Palát ranked second in the QMJHL with 25 goals and 29 assists through 34 games. He was also named to the Czech junior team roster for the second consecutive year.[14] Palát finished the 2010–11 season with a career-high 39 goals and 57 assists for 96 points.[5]

Leading up to the 2011 NHL entry draft, the Tampa Bay Lightning had planned to invite Palát to a tryout as a free agent if he remained undrafted. However, during the draft, the Lightning acquired an extra seventh-round pick at the last minute and used it to draft Palát 208th overall.[15]

Tampa Bay Lightning (2011–2022)

After attending the Lightning's 2011 training camp, Palát signed a three-year, entry-level contract and joined their

Mike Kostka's goals to lift the Admirals to their first AHL championship.[19] This would be their last Calder Cup trophy under the name Admirals as the Lightning announced they had accepted the Syracuse Crunch as their new AHL affiliate.[20]

Palát returned to the AHL for the

Benoit Pouliot. At the time, he led the team in goals and ranked third with points.[25] Palát subsequently made his NHL debut the following night against the Pittsburgh Penguins and recorded his first NHL point with an assist on Tom Pyatt's goal.[26] Later, on 16 March, he scored his first career NHL goal against Justin Peters of the Carolina Hurricanes.[27] On 25 March 2013, Crunch head coach Jon Cooper replaced Guy Boucher as the Lightnings newest head coach.[28] Rob Zettler was subsequently appointed the Crunch's head coach as they attempted to qualify the 2013 Calder Cup playoffs.[29] Due to the NHL's waiver rules, Palát was required to be assigned to the Crunch by 3pmEST on 3 April 2013 in order to play in the Calder Cup playoffs.[30][31] Over the final nine games of the regular-season, Palát recorded three goals and 10 assists for 13 points.[32] As all three were playing in the NHL, the "Top Gun Line" was reunited for the first time since 2 March in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals. In their first game back together, Palát and Johnson tallied three points while Panik scored the game-winning overtime goal to lift the Crunch over the Portland Pirates.[33] By Game 3, Palát had recorded five points and the trio combined for 12 as the Crunch led the series 2–0.[32] Palát scored the series-winning overtime goal of Game 4 to lead the Crunch over the Pirates and into the Eastern Conference semifinals.[34] After eliminating the Crunch, Palát and the "Top Gun Line" continued their dominance against the Springfield Falcons. Over three games, Palát and Johnson both had eight points while Panik had five.[35] The Crunch swept the Falcons in four games to qualify for the Calder Cup conference finals for the first time in 17 years.[36] After winning Games 2, 3, and 4, Palát set numerous franchise and league records en route to the Calder Cup Finals.[37] While the Crunch eliminated the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins with a 7–0 shutout,[38] Palát's 20 points led the league and were the third most recorded in Crunch playoff history. He also set a new single-season playoff scoring record and tied the franchise record for most assists in a single playoff game with three.[37] However, the "Top Gun Line" struggled in the Finals after losing Panik to an injury,[39] and the Crunch eventually fell to the Grand Rapids Griffins in six games.[40]

Palát with the Tampa Bay Lightning in March 2014.

Palát participated in the Lightning's 2013 training camp and preseason games

Sochi, Russia.[51] By the end of January, Palát ranked third among rookies with 20 assists and fourth with 31 points. His efforts were recognized by the NHL who awarded him the Rookie of the Month accolade.[50] Following St. Louis' trade to the New York Rangers in March, Palát recorded four goals and nine points over seven games.[52] He was named the NHL's Rookie of the Month after recording five goals and 11 assists through 16 games in the month of March. At the time, he also ranked second among all rookies with 32 assists and 51 points.[53] Once Stamkos recovered from his broken leg and was named captain of the Lighting in earl-March, Johnson and Palát were split up for the first time in the season.[54] Stamkos spoke highly of Palát after becoming his linemate in March: "You see the way he plays, the work ethic he has, the skill set he has, the confidence he's gaining each and every game. He's an unbelievable player. You'd love to play with a guy like that."[55] Palát finished the season leading the Lightning in scoring with 23 goals and 36 assists for 59 points in 81 games, helping the Lighting qualify for the playoffs for the first time since 2011. As such, Palát was named a finalist for the Calder Memorial Trophy, awarded to the NHL's rookie of the year, along with teammate Tyler Johnson.[47][56] Palát, along with Johnson, became the first teammates to be nominated for the Trophy since Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews of the Chicago Blackhawks in 2008.[57] Although the Calder went to Nathan MacKinnon of the Colorado Avalanche,[58] Palát was named to the NHL All-Rookie Team.[59] On 20 April 2014, Palát recorded his first career playoff goal and point against Carey Price in the Lightning's game three 3–2 loss to the Montreal Canadiens. In the Lighting's first round four-game sweep at the hands of the Montreal Canadiens in the opening round of the 2014 playoffs

Following his strong rookie season, the Lightning signed Palát to a three-year $10 million contract extension on 9 June.

Selke Trophy winner.[69] Before suffering a lower-body injury in a game against the Montreal Canadiens on 10 March 2015, Palát had collected 15 goals and 37 assists up to that point.[70] He was one of three Lightning players expected to miss weeks of gameplay after being injured in that game.[71] The "Triplets line" finished the season combining for 48 goals and only allowing 23 to be scored against them.[63] Palát finished with 16 goals and a career-high and team-high 47 assists as all three set new career-highs in points.[17] The "Triplets line" played a significant role in the Lightning's push to qualify for the 2015 playoffs.[72][73] However, they struggled in the first round against the Detroit Red Wings. Palát went pointless over the first three games while Johnson and Kucherov combined for only three points.[74] This changed in Game 4 as Palát scored his first goal of the postseason, which was also the game-tying goal, to help the Lightning tie the series 2–2.[75] The trio finished the series combining for 14 points over seven games[76] and advanced to the second round for the first time since 2011.[77] In their six-game series with the Montreal Canadiens, the "Triplets line" combined for 17 points en route to the Eastern Conference finals for the first time since 2011.[76][78] After beating the Canadiens, the Lightning faced the New York Rangers and defeated them in seven games.[79] Although the Rangers won Game 1, Palát was named the Third Star of the Game for scoring the Lightning's only goal in the 2–1 loss.[80] Following the Lightning's win over the Rangers in Game 2, the "Triplets line" earned praise from opponent Dan Boyle for their creativity. He also said that the trio "reminded him of how the game was played 10 years ago."[81] All three members of the "Triplets line" scored goals in the Lightning's 6–5 overtime win to clinch Game 3. Palát was named the Second Star of the Game for tallying two goals and one assist.[82] After being pushed to Game 7, Palát scored one of the Lightning's two goals to send the team to the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time since 2004.[83] By the end of the seven-game series, the trio had combined for 11 goals and 24 overall points.[84] While the trio continued to accumulate points in the Finals, they fell to the Chicago Blackhawks in six games.[85] Palát finished the playoffs with eight goals and eight assists for 14 points.[5]

Following their deep playoff run, Palát reunited with Johnson and Kucherov for the Lightning's exhibition games before the start of the

Petr Mrazek to give the Lighting a 3–1 series lead to extend the Lightning's series lead and push the Red Wings to a final death Game 5.[100] After eliminating the Red Wings, Palát was reunited with Tyler Johnson and Nikita Kucherov for the second round against the New York Islanders.[101] In their first game back together, Palát and Kuckerov both assisted on one of Johnson's two goals to help the Lightning even the series 1–1.[102] After eliminating the Islanders in five games, Palát and the Lightning qualified for the Eastern Conference Finals for the second consecutive year.[103] For their series against the Penguins, the "Triplets line" was again split up and Palát joined Alex Killorn and Jonathan Drouin on the Lightning's second line. All three members of this line scored in Game 1 to help the Lightning beat the Penguins 3–1.[104] However, as the Lightning began to struggle offensively, the "Triplets line" were periodically reunited in an effort to boost the team's scoring. While reunited in Game 3, Johnson and Palat scored one goal each but could not match the Penguin's lead.[105] They were more successful in Game 5 and combined for the Lightning's game-tying goal by Nikita Kucherov to put the Lightning within one win of a second consecutive appearance in the 2016 Stanley Cup Finals.[106]

Despite earning 94 points during the 2016–17 season, the Lightning failed to qualify for the Stanley Cup playoffs for the first time since 2013.[107] Palát struggled offensively at the start of the season and tallied only one goal and three assists through the team's first 12 games.[108] He broke a seven-game pointless drought on 7 November 2016 by tallying his second goal of the season against the Florida Panthers.[109] By early December, the "Triplets line" had been reunited but Palát continued to struggle to produce offensively.[110] The "Triplets line" was unable to stick together for long as both Palát and Kucherov suffered injuries. After missing numerous games, both players returned on 28 December and the "Triplets line" combined for six points in a win over the Canadiens.[111][112] He missed two games due to a lower-body injury on 2 February but returned to form on 10 February.[113] The trio combined for eight points in a 4–1 win over the Edmonton Oilers on 27 February to help the Lightning extend their points streak to seven games.[114]

On 14 July 2017, Palát was signed by the Lightning to a five-year contract with an average annual value of $5.3 million.

slashed during a game against the Minnesota Wild and was expected to miss six to eight weeks to recover.[118] At the time of the injury, Palát had eight goals and 22 assists for 30 points over 46 games.[119]

Palát struggled during the 2018–19 season and finished with eight goals and 26 assists 34 points, his fewest since 2013–14. Part of the reason for this scoring dip was the numerous injuries Palát suffered during the season.[120] After playing through an injury he suffered in late October, Palát was sidelined for four weeks to recover. At the time, he had recorded no goals and five assists through nine games.[121] He returned to the Lightning's lineup on 29 November after missing 16 games.[122] Palát remained healthy through December to early February[120] and played in his 400th career game on 5 February 2019 against the Vegas Golden Knights.[123] Shortly after reaching this milestone, Palát missed two games with an upper-body injury but returned to the Lightning's lineup on 14 February.[124] As the season progressed, the Lightning became the fourth NHL team to win at least 59 games in a season after beating the Boston Bruins on 25 March.[125] Palát left that game in the first period due to an upper-body injury but returned to the lineup the following game.[126] Despite winning the Presidents' Trophy as the team with the best overall record during the regular season, the Lightning were unexpectedly swept in four games by the Blue Jackets in the first round.[127] Palát recorded one goal and one assist over all four games played.[5] Due to their early exit from the playoffs, Palát was able to compete with the Czech Republic men's national team in the 2019 IIHF World Championship.[128]

Over the 2019 offseason, Palát focused on improving his sprints, cores and jumps, to improve his cardio and stamina while skating.[129] In November, Palát set numerous personal records. On 23 November 2019, Palát recorded his 100th career NHL goal in a 6–2 win over the Anaheim Ducks.[130] Two days later, on 25 November, Palát recorded his 200th career NHL assist and 300th career NHL point in a 5–2 win over the Buffalo Sabres.[131] Palát was the eighth Lightning player to record 200 career assists and 10th Lightning player to record 300 career points.[132] When the NHL returned to play in July for the 2020 playoffs, it was decided that 24 teams would play in a bubble hub in either Toronto or Edmonton due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[133] Palát and the Lightning faced the Columbus Blue Jackets in the first round for the second consecutive season.[134] Despite not scoring any goals in their first-round series, Palát and the Lightning defeated the Blue Jackets in five games to advance to the Eastern Conference semifinals against the Bruins. Palát scored his first goal of the playoffs, and his first overtime playoff goal, in Game 2 to even the series 1–1.[135] While playing alongside Kucherov and Brayden Point (mainly due to a core muscle injury from Steven Stamkos) and the line being dubbed as "Triplets 2.0", Palát continued to accumulate points and swiftly recorded goals in three straight games. After scoring two goals in Game 4, he tied the franchise's second-longest playoff goal streak record.[136] He scored his fifth goal in four games in Game 5 to help the Lightning defeat the Presidents Trophy-winning Bruins in five games in the second round and advance to the Eastern Conference finals for the fourth time in six seasons.[137] By scoring this goal, Palát joined Vincent Lecavalier, Martin St. Louis and Steven Stamkos as the only players in franchise history to record goals in four consecutive playoff games.[138] Palát and the Lightning faced the New York Islanders in the third round. In Game 1, Palát set a new franchise record for longest goal streak in a postseason by scoring one of the Lightning's eight goals in their win.[139] He also became the only player in the 2020 playoffs to maintain a five-game goal streak and tied Tyler Johnson for third-most goals in the franchise's playoff history.[140] Palát continued to spend the majority of the six-game series on the Lightning's top line with Point and Kucherov.[141] He tied for second on the team with four points over the six games[142] while the trio combined for 21 points.[141] Upon defeating the Islanders, the Lightning competed in their first Stanley Cup Final since losing to the Chicago Blackhawks in 2015.[143] In Game 3 of the 2020 Stanley Cup Finals against the Dallas Stars, Palát scored his 10th goal of the postseason on Anton Khudobin to help the Lightning beat the Stars 5–2. As such, Tampa Bay became the first team to have three players record 10 or more goals in a single playoff year since 2010.[144] Palát and the Lightning won their second Stanley Cup in franchise history as they defeated the Stars in six games.[145]

In light of pandemic restrictions on cross-border travel, the NHL temporarily realigned its structure for the 2020–21 season and reduced the season to 56 games. As such, the Lightning, Hurricanes, Blackhawks, Blue Jackets, Stars, Red Wings, Panthers, and Predators competed in the Central Division and only against each other.[146] When the Lightning began their season on 13 January, Palát was reunited on the top line with Point and Stamkos.[147] As a member of the top unit, Palát helped the Lightning to six consecutive wins before it was snapped by the Panthers on 11 February.[148] Amid their win streak, the Lightning moved Palát to the right-hand side where he immediately scored four goals.[149][150] However, Palát's production started to cease as the Lightning began a lengthy winning slump through March and early April.[151] While he continued to collect assists, Palát ended his 13-game goalless drought on 22 April against the Columbus Blue Jackets.[152] Upon breaking out of the slump, Palát led the Lightning with two goals and four assists over a week of gameplay and maintained a five-game point streak.[153] Palát recorded two assists in the Lightning's win over the Blackhawks on 27 April to help the team qualify for the 2021 Stanley Cup playoffs.[154] Palát sat out of the Lightning's final game of the regular season due to a lower-body injury.[155] As such, he finished the regular season with 15 goals and 31 assists for 46 points.[156]

Palát returned to the Lightning's lineup for Game 1 of the first round of the playoffs against the Florida Panthers. He scored the game-winning goal in Game 2 on Sergei Bobrovsky to help the Lightning to a 2–0 series lead.[157] After scoring a goal in Game 4, Palát passed Martin St. Louis for second place on the franchise's all-time playoff goals scored list.[158] Once the Lightning eliminated the Panthers, they met with the Hurricanes in the second round.[159] In the Lightning's series-clinching Game 5, Palát received a two-minute minor following a hit to the head of Brett Pesce but faced no further discipline.[160] By the end of the series, Palát set a franchise record for most postseason goals away from home ice with 18.[161] After defeating the Islanders in the third round for a second consecutive year this time in seven games, the Lightning faced the Montreal Canadiens in the 2021 Stanley Cup Finals. They beat the Canadiens in five games to win back-to-back Stanley Cup championships and third in team history altogether.[162] Palát finished the postseason with five goals and eight assists for 13 points in all 23 games and with the Lightning's franchise record in playoff game-winning goals with nine and ranked second in total postseason goals with 37.[163]

Before the start of the 2021–22 season, Palát was named to Team Czech Republic to compete at the 2022 Winter Olympics.[156] However, they failed to qualify for the Olympics after losing to Team Switzerland in the group stage and NHL players were unable to participate due to the spread of the omicron variant of COVID-19.[164] Palát recorded his 400th career point on 4 January 2022 by tallying two goals in the Lightning's 7–2 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets.[165] He subsequently became the seventh player in franchise history and the eighth member of his draft class (out of 211) to reach this milestone.[163] Palát scored the two goals over the Lightning's next two games for seven points over eight games.[166] After missing numerous games due to an injury, Palát set another milestone by skating in his 590th career game. As such, he passed Johnson and moved into seventh place on the franchise's all-time games played list.[167] Palát then went through a 28-game goalless drought that started on 11 January. He broke this streak by scoring a goal on 10 April in a 5–0 win over the Buffalo Sabres.[168][169] He finished the season with three assists by helping on all three of Stamkos' goals against the New York Islanders in the season finale ending with 18 goals and 31 assists for 49 points in 77 contests.[170]

Following his 10th season in the NHL with the Lightning, Palát left the club as a free agent and signed a five-year, $30 million contract with the New Jersey Devils.[171] He recorded three goals over his first six games with the Devils in the 2022–23 season before suffering a groin injury.[172] He underwent surgery to repair the issue and missed all of November and December to recover. He was activated off injured reserve on 5 January and made his return that night against the St. Louis Blues.[173] Palát skated through 18 shifts and played 14:24 minutes of ice time in the 5–3 loss.[174] He scored two goals over the final two months of the regular season[175] and finished with eight goals and 15 assists in 49 games as the Devils reached the playoffs for the first time since 2018.[5]

On 14 November 2023, Palát recorded his 300th career assist after earning a point on Timo Meier's fifth goal of the season. He subsequently became the 27th Czechia native with 300 or more career assists in the NHL.[176] Later that season, Palát played in his 700th career game on 5 December against the Vancouver Canucks.[177]
