'''Lukáš Kašpar''' (born 23 September 1985) is a [[Czech Republic|Czech]] professional [[ice hockey]] player. He is currently playing with [[HC Dynamo Moscow]] of the Russian [[Kontinental Hockey League]] (KHL). He was originally drafted by the [[San Jose Sharks]] in the first round (22nd overall) of the [[2004 NHL Entry Draft]].

==Playing career==
Kašpar was the 22nd overall pick of the Sharks in the [[2004 NHL Entry Draft]]. He came to North America in 2004 to play for the [[Ottawa 67's]] of the [[Ontario Hockey League]], tallying 21 goals and 30 assists, making it to the [[Memorial Cup]] in his first and only year in Canadian Junior Hockey.

After signing a three-year entry-level contract with the Sharks, Kašpar scored his first goal in the [[National Hockey League]] on 12 October 2008 against [[Jason LaBarbera]] of the [[Los Angeles Kings]] in a 1–0 victory. Kašpar's second [[National Hockey League]] goal was again against the Kings on 19 February 2009 against goaltender [[Erik Ersberg]].

On 21 July 2009, he signed a two-year, two-way [[contract]] with the [[Philadelphia Flyers]] for an undisclosed amount. He was assigned to the AHL affiliate [[Adirondack Phantoms]] before he opted to terminate his contract after 8 games and return to Europe on 4 November 2009, having signed a season-long deal with [[Kärpät]] in the Finnish [[SM-liiga]].

After two seasons with [[HC Donbass]], and with the club suspending operations due to civil unrest, Kaspar opted to join HC Ugra on a one-year deal on 10 July 2014.<ref>{{citeweb| url = http://ugra-hc.ru/press-tsenter/novosti-kluba/khk-yugra-podpisal-kontrakt-s-lukashem-kashparom.html | title = HC Yugra contract Lukas Kaspar | publisher = ''[[HC Ugra]]'' | date = 2014-07-10 | accessdate = 2014-07-10 | language = Russian}}</ref>
