André Charles Peloffy (born February 25, 1951 in Sète, France and raised in Sainte-Lucie-des-Laurentides, Quebec) is a retired Canadian ice hockey forward.

Drafted by the New York Rangers in the 1971 NHL Entry Draft, Peloffy never played for the Rangers and was traded to the Washington Capitals prior to the 1974–75 NHL season and played nine games during the team's inaugural season. His principal success came in the American Hockey League with the Springfield Indians, Providence Reds and Richmond Robins. He won the John B.

He would also play 10 games for the New England Whalers of the World Hockey Association.
