Adam Lowry (born March 29, 1993) is an American-born Canadian professional ice hockey forward who is currently playing with the Winnipeg Jets in the National Hockey League.

On August 27, 2009, Lowry signed a WHL contract with his draft team, the Swift Current Broncos. In his rookie season with the Broncos, Lowry scored 15 goals and 34 points in 61 games played as a 16-year-old. Lowry won the Daryl K. (Doc) Seaman Trophy as scholastic player of the year.

Entering his second season with the Broncos, Lowry became ill with mononucleosis prior to training camp. As a result, Lowry was unable to play in August and September 2010.
