Joe Hall (May 3, 1882 - April 6, 1919), nicknamed Bad Joe Hall, was a professional ice hockey defenceman.

Born Joseph Henry Hall in Staffordshire, England, United Kingdom. He played for the Montreal Canadiens in their first two seasons in the National Hockey League from 1917-1919. He previously played in the Manitoba Hockey League with the Brandon Wheat Kings and the Kenora Thistles, and in the National Hockey Association as a member of the Quebec Bulldogs.

The 1919 Stanley Cup Finals were interrupted and eventually cancelled due to an outbreak of Spanish influenza. The flu was contracted by several players on both the Canadiens and their opponents, the Seattle Metropolitans. Hall would eventually succumb to pneumonia, related to his influenza, in a hospital in Seattle, Washington just five days after the Stanley Cup Final series was abandoned. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1961.
