Louis A. Letourneau (1868? – April 29, 1952) was an ice hockey team owner of the Montreal Canadiens hockey team.

When George Kennedy, Montreal Canadiens owner, died in October 1921, Letourneau, Leo Dandurand and Joseph Cattarinich bought the team for $11,000. This trio was affectionately referred to as the "Three Musketeers" of hockey owners. Letourneau retained his share of the ownership until he sold it in 1932.[1]

He died April 29, 1952 at the age of 84.[1]
