Frank Joseph James "Budd" Lynch (August 7, 1917 – October 9, 2012) was the Detroit Red Wings' public address announcer at Joe Louis Arena, a position he held from 1985 to 2012.

Lynch had been with the Windsor Spitfires when Red Wings' general manager Jack Adams asked him to call the games for his organization.

A native of Windsor, Ontario, Lynch joined the Essex Scottish Regiment of the Canadian Army during World War II.

On November 5, 2009, Lynch was honored at Joe Louis Arena for the 60th anniversary of his first play-by-play television broadcast of a Red Wings game.

After the ceremony, the Red Wings prevailed 2–1 over the San Jose Sharks in a shootout, and fans received Budd Lynch bobbleheads to celebrate the occasion.
