Calvin de Haan (born May 9, 1991) is a Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman currently playing for the New York Islanders of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was selected 12th overall by the Islanders during the 2009 NHL Entry Draft.

de Haan represented Canada at the 2010 and 2011 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships, winning silver medals in both tournaments.

de Haan was drafted by the Oshawa Generals of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) in the third round, 50th overall, at the 2007 OHL Priority Selection. Prior to joining the Generals, he played one season with the Kemptville 73's of the Central Junior A Hockey League. He was named the Rookie of the Year in the 2007–08 season after scoring 42 points in 58 games. In his rookie season with the Generals in 2008–09, he finished second on the team in scoring with 63 points, scoring eight goals and adding 55 assists. The Generals named him their top rookie and top defenceman, while he was also selected to play in the OHL All-Star Game and the 2009 CHL Top Prospects Game.

Ranked 25th by the NHL Central Scouting Bureau heading into the 2009 NHL Entry Draft, de Haan expected to be a late first, or early second round, selection. He was eventually selected by the New York Islanders, who made a trade to acquire the 12th overall pick, which they used to draft him. de Haan played most of the 2011–12 season with the Bridgeport Sound Tigers of the American Hockey League (AHL), playing 56 games and scoring two goals with 14 assists.
