Eugène Duclos Payan (September 10, 1888 – April 27, 1971) was a Canadian professional ice hockey player. He played with the Montreal Canadiens of the National Hockey Association, from the 1910–11 season through to the 1913–14 season.[1]

On March 2, 1912, he suffered a concussion when he collided with one of the Cleghorn brothers in a 2–1 victory of the Canadiens against the Montreal Wanderers. Alphonse Jetté had to replace him as Eugène became delirious and was taken to a hospital.[2]
