Shayne Angelo Toporowski (born August 6, 1975 in Paddockwood, Saskatchewan) is a retired Canadian professional ice hockey right winger and current college coach. He was drafted into the National Hockey League (NHL) in the second round, 42nd overall, by the Los Angeles Kings in the 1993 draft.

After being drafted, Toporowski continued to play junior hockey for the Prince Albert Raiders of the Western Hockey League (WHL). In October 1994, the Kings traded him, Guy Leveque, Dixon Ward, and Kelly Fairchild to the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for Eric Lacroix, Chris Snell, and a fourth-round pick in the 1996 draft. The following two seasons, Toporowski played for the Maple Leafs' minor league affiliate, the St. John's Maple Leafs of the American Hockey League (AHL). In the 1996–97 season, Toronto called him up for three NHL games.

The following off-season, he signed a two-year contract with the St. Louis Blues and played for their AHL affiliate, the Worcester IceCats. The year following, he signed a one-year contract with the Phoenix Coyotes and played for their AHL affiliate, the Springfield Falcons.
