Percy LeSueur (November 18, 1881 in Quebec City, Quebec - January 27, 1962) was a Canadian professional ice hockey goalie who played for the Ottawa Senators and Toronto Ontarios / Shamrocks of the National Hockey Association.

Percy was the goaltender of the great Senators teams that won 5 challenges for the Stanley Cup. He also played with the Toronto Ontarios, who changed their name to the Shamrocks midway into the 1914-15 season. He joined the 228th battalion team called the Northern Fusiliers in 1916-17, but he seemed more interested in training new recruits than in goaltending and his playing career was over. Percy also coached the Hamilton Tigers in the NHL in the 1923-24 season. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1961.
