Playing career
Undrafted, Přibyl played in his native Czech Republic, with HC Sparta Praha of the Czech Extraliga. After making his professional debut in the 2010–11 season with Praha as an 18-year-old, he was selected in the sixth round, 168th overall, by the Montreal Canadiens in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft.

On April 22, 2016, Přibyl was signed by the Calgary Flames of the National Hockey League (NHL), to a two-year, entry-level contract as an unrestricted free agent. In his debut North American season in 2016–17, Přibyl was assigned to the Flames American Hockey League affiliate, the Stockton Heat. He appeared in 33 games, contributing offensively with 5 goals and 15 points.

Approaching the final year of his contract for the 2017–18 season, Přibyl was injured in the lead up to training camp, suffering an Anterior Cruciate Ligament tear that required surgery, ruling him out for the entirety of the campaign.
