Stefan Persson (born December 22, 1954, in Bjurholm, Sweden) is a retired Swedish ice hockey player. He made his debut as an 18-year-old defenceman with Piteå IF. In 1973 he joined Brynäs. While with Brynäs, he received his first national championship silver medal and two national championship gold medals, in 1976 and 1977. It was during this time that The New York Islanders drafted him, so Persson decided to go overseas to play in the NHL. He was inducted into the Piteå Wall of Fame in 2006.
