Brent Fedyk (born March 3, 1967, in Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Canada) is a retired Canadian professional ice hockey right winger. He was drafted in the first round, 8th overall, by the Detroit Red Wings in the 1985 NHL Entry Draft.

After playing five seasons in the Western Hockey League, Fedyk made his professional debut with the Red Wings' American Hockey League affiliate, the Adirondack Red Wings, in the 1987-88 season. He also appeared in two NHL games with Detroit that same season.

After splitting three seasons between Detroit and Adirondack, and then spending two seasons in the NHL full-time, Fedyk joined the Philadelphia Flyers for the 1992-93 season. He recorded the only two 20-goal seasons of his career in his first two seasons in Philadelphia as a member of the Crazy Eights line with Eric Lindros and Mark Recchi.

Fedyk moved during the 1995-96 season to the Dallas Stars. He then was out of the NHL for three seasons, playing in the International Hockey League. He had one final stint in the NHL during the 1998-99 season, playing with the New York Rangers.
