Dennis Marvin Seidenberg (born 18 July 1981) is a German professional ice hockey defenceman currently playing for the New York Islanders of the National Hockey League. He has previously played with the Philadelphia Flyers, Carolina Hurricanes, and Boston Bruins, with whom he won the Stanley Cup in 2011.
Seidenberg was drafted in the sixth round, 172nd overall, by the Philadelphia Flyers in the 2001 NHL Entry Draft. After spending three years with Adler Mannheim of the Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL) in his native Germany, he signed with the Flyers in 2002. Seidenberg spent the next two seasons bouncing between the NHL team and the American Hockey League (AHL)'s Philadelphia Phantoms, but played the entire 2004–05 season with the Phantoms during the lockout, winning the 2005 Calder Cup.
In both seasons after the lockout, Seidenberg was involved in a midseason trade. On 20 January, 2006, Seidenberg was sent to the Phoenix Coyotes for Petr Nedvěd; the following year, the Coyotes sent Seidenberg to the Carolina Hurricanes on 8 January in exchange for center Kevyn Adams.
On 14 September 2009, he signed a one-year $2.25 million contract with the Florida Panthers.
