Jon Landry (born May 1, 1983) is a Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman. He is currently under contract to the Washington Capitals organization of the National Hockey League (NHL).

On July 1, 2012, Landry was signed belatedly to his first NHL contract on a one-year deal with the New York Islanders.[1] Landry earned his contract from the previous season in an impressive try-out with the Islanders AHL affiliate, the Bridgeport Sound Tigers. He was re-assigned to the Sound Tigers to begin the 2012–13 season. In 72 games with the Sound Tigers, Landry was productive from the blueline with 8 goals and 33 points. On January 13, 2013, he received his first NHL recall by the Islanders but did not feature in a game.[2]

On July 9, 2013, Landry left the Islanders organization as a free agent and signed a one-year two-way contract with the Minnesota Wild.

On July 1, 2014, Landry signed as a free agent to a one-year two way contract with the Washington Capitals.[3]
