Daniel Stephen Lodboa (September 25, 1946 – May 11, 2019) was a Canadian professional ice hockey player who played 58 games in the World Hockey Association. Born in Thorold, Ontario, he played with the Chicago Cougars.

Lodboa was a tri-captain of the 1969-1970 Cornell men's ice hockey team, the only team in NCAA history to complete a season with a perfect record, going 29-0. He was the first defenseman to ever become the top Cornell scorer for a season, with 61 points on 24 goals and 37 assists in 1970. Over this three-year varsity career he accounted for 134 points (52-82). He was named The Cornell Daily Sun Athlete of the Year for 1969-70. Lodboa's career highlight is scoring a natural hat trick in the third period of the championship game in 1970, winning the tournament MOP in the process. Lodboa died on May 11, 2019, at the age of 72.[1][2]
