Terry Simpson (born August 30, 1943) is a retired Canadian professional ice hockey player and a former NHL head coach.
Born in Brantford, Ontario, Simpson only played one season of professional ice hockey in 1964–65 for the Jacksonville Rockets of the EHL. He was the head coach of the New York Islanders, Philadelphia Flyers, and Winnipeg Jets.
Simpson had a notable coaching career in junior hockey for 10 years with the Prince Albert Raiders. He led the team to seven consecutive Anavet Cups and four Manitoba Centennial Cup titles. After the Raiders joined the Western Hockey League, he led them to the 1985 Memorial Cup championship.
