Lawrence Kwong (born Eng Kai Geong; Chinese: 吳啟光; June 17, 1923 – March 15, 2018) was a Canadian professional ice hockey forward who was the first non-white and Asian descent player in the National Hockey League (NHL). He broke the NHL's colour barrier when he debuted with the New York Rangers in 1948, playing a short shift at the end of the third period. Although denied much playing time in the NHL, Kwong was a top player in senior hockey leagues outside the NHL throughout his entire career and battled the likes of Jean Beliveau for the scoring race in Quebec.
