Austin Strand (born February 17, 1997) is a Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman for the Chicago Wolves of the American Hockey League (AHL). He previously played for the Los Angeles Kings and Anaheim Ducks in the National Hockey League (NHL).

Strand was born on February 17, 1997, in Calgary to Leanne and Wade and grew up alongside his older brother Coleton and sister Krysten. Growing up, Strand played with Austin Wagner on the Calgary Bantam AA Blazers for their 2010–11 season before both were promoted to the Bantam AAA Northstar Sabres and Midget AAA Calgary Northstars.

Strand immediately joined the Reign to complete the 2017–18 season but did not skate in any games. He returned to the Reign for the 2018–19 season but was loaned to the ECHL's Manchester Monarchs prior to the beginning of the season. He tallied two points in six games with the Monarchs before being recalled to the Reign on November 2. Strand subsequently made his AHL debut with on November 25 and tallied up an assist in a 7–6 overtime win over the Tucson Roadrunners. Strand alternated between the Reign and the Monarchs throughout the first half of his rookie season before he was able to become a mainstay on the Reigns' lineup in the second half.

Near the start of the 2020–21 season, Strand was re-signed by the Kings to a one-year contract. Once the NHL resumed play, Strand was named to the Kings' taxi squad as part of their opening night roster. Strand made his NHL debut on February 5, 2021, in the Kings' 5–2 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights. A few games later, he was fined $3,168.10 for spearing Arizona Coyotes forward Conor Garland during a game.

Following his fourth season within the Kings organization, Strand left as a free agent and was signed to a one-year, two-way contract with the Anaheim Ducks on July 14, 2022.
