Joseph Onésime Maxime "Alcide" Laurin (November 21, 1880 – February 24, 1905) was a Canadian ice hockey player who played for an Ontario-based team in Alexandria, and is the first recorded player to die as a result of an on-ice incident in ice hockey.

On February 24, 1905, Laurin was beaten to death by 19-year-old Allan Loney, a player on a rival team from Maxville, Ontario.

[2] Loney, a player who was infamous for his brutal on-ice violence, was charged with murder, which was later changed to manslaughter.

On March 29, after five hours of deliberation, the jury acquitted Loney after defense witnesses testified and claimed the blow to Laurin was either instinctive or was in self-defense.

The Alexandria side of the rivalry was made up of Catholic French Canadians, contrary to the anglophone and Protestant beliefs of the Maxville population.
