Jean Louis "Jackie" LeClair (May 30, 1929 – June 14, 2011) was a Canadian professional ice hockey player who played three seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL) with the Montreal Canadiens from 1954 to 1957. The rest of his career, which lasted from 1949 to 1968, was spent in the minor leagues.

LeClair played his entire National Hockey League career with the Montreal Canadiens. He played three seasons with the Canadiens, from 1954–55 to 1956–57. He is credited with winning the Stanley Cup once, in 1956. In 1957, Jack played 47 games for Montreal, qualifying his name to be engraved on the cup, but he was sent to the minors before the playoffs started so his name was left off the cup. The remainder of his career was spent in the Quebec Senior Hockey League, American Hockey League and Eastern Hockey League. LeClair died on June 14, 2011.
