Ross Robert Lowe{{cite web|title=Ross Lowe NHL Stats|url=https://www.hockey-reference.com/players/l/lowero01.html|work=Hockey Reference|accessdate=1 August 2011}} (September 21, 1928 in Oshawa, Ontario – August 14, 1955) was a Canadian professional ice hockey player who played three seasons in the National Hockey League from 1949 to 1952 for the Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadiens.
Lowe scored his first NHL goal on November 15, 1950, as a member of the Boston Bruins in his team's 4-3 win over the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden.
Lowe played 77 career NHL games, scoring six goals and eight assists for fourteen points. In his last professional season, he played for the Springfield Indians of the American Hockey League and managed to score 82 points in only 60 games, which earned him the Les Cunningham Award as league MVP. Ross signed with the New York Rangers but never made it to training camp as he drowned that off-season in Lake Haliburton while vacationing with his family.
