Nathan Lieuwen (born August 8, 1991) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey goaltender. On June 25, 2011 he was drafted by the Buffalo Sabres in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft. He was selected in the 6th round, 167th overall. Lieuwen briefly played for the Sabres but spent most of his career in the minor leagues, playing for the Rochester Americans and San Antonio Rampage of the American Hockey League. Multiple concussions derailed his career prospects, forcing his early retirement.

He is the majority owner and president of the junior A British Columbia Hockey League's Cranbrook Bucks, which is announced to start play in the 2020–21 BCHL season.
