Douglas Leonard Stevenson (April 6, 1924 – November 9, 1975) was a Canadian professional ice hockey goaltender who played eight games in the National Hockey League: four with the New York Rangers and four with the Chicago Black Hawks during the 1944–45 and 1945–46 seasons.
He spent the majority of his career, which lasted from 1943 to 1956, in the Pacific Coast Hockey League and Western Hockey League).
Unusually, upon Stevenson's NHL debut with the Rangers -- with a heavily depleted roster due to World War II, and with the Rangers' starting goaltender Ken McAuley unable to play because of a knee injury -- on February 12, 1945, against the Montreal Canadiens, he had played earlier in the day for the New York Rovers of the Eastern Amateur Hockey League against the Washington Lions, giving up four goals in a 4-4 tie.
Stevenson made 36 saves in a 4-3 loss to the Canadiens.
