Chandler Stephenson (born April 22, 1994) is a Canadian professional ice hockey forward for the Vegas Golden Knights of the National Hockey League (NHL). Stephenson was selected by the Washington Capitals in the 3rd round (77th overall) of the 2012 NHL Entry Draft. Stephenson won the Stanley Cup as a member of the Capitals in 2018.

Playing career
As a youth, Stephenson first played in his hometown in the Saskatchewan Midget AAA Hockey League before opting for a major junior career in the Western Hockey League with the Regina Pats. On April 12, 2014, Stephenson was signed to a three-year entry-level contract with the Washington Capitals. He was immediately assigned to AHL affiliate, the Hershey Bears on an amateur try-out and made his professional debut at the tail end of the 2013–14 season.

In the early stages of the 2015–16 season, Stephenson was recalled from the Bears to the Capitals on October 15, 2015. He was drawn into the lineup that day and made his NHL debut in a 4–1 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks.

On October 26, 2017, Stephenson scored his first NHL goal against goaltender Anders Nilsson in a 6–2 loss to the Vancouver Canucks.

On June 7, 2018, Stephenson and the Capitals defeated the Vegas Golden Knights 4–3 to clinch their first Stanley Cup in franchise history. Afterwards, Stephenson stated he will spend his day with the Stanley Cup in Humboldt, Saskatchewan in honour of the Humboldt Broncos bus crash victims. On August 24, Stephenson took the Stanley Cup to the highway intersection where the crash happened and met privately with some of the survivors.

During the 2019–20 season having contributed with just 4 points through 24 games, Stephenson was traded by the Capitals to the Vegas Golden Knights in exchange for a fifth-round pick in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft on December 3, 2019. Making his debut with the Golden Knights the following day, Stephenson scored the opening goal in a 4–3 victory over the New Jersey Devils.

On October 7, 2020, Stephenson signed a four-year, $11 million contract extension with the Golden Knights.
