Zbyněk Irgl (born November 29, 1980) is a Czech professional ice hockey player.

Irgl was selected 197th overall by the Nashville Predators in round 6 of the 2000 NHL Entry Draft. The Predators had received the pick from the St. Louis Blues in a trade for Blair Atcheynum. The selection meant little for the Predators as Irgl has played his entire professional career in Europe, first in the Czech Extraliga for HC Vítkovice, in 2007-2010 for Lokomotiv Yaroslavl of the KHL. In 2010-11 Irgl Zbyněk plays for Atlant Moscow Oblast of the KHL.

International play

Irgl played his first game for the national team in 2004, and has played 52 times for the Czech national team (as of January 3, 2009.)[1]
