Leonard Francis Broderick (born October 11, 1938) is a Canadian former ice hockey goaltender. He played one game in the National Hockey League, with the Montreal Canadiens during the 1957–58 season. He is the brother of former professional hockey player Ken Broderick.

Born in Toronto, Ontario, Broderick played junior hockey with the Toronto Marlboros, with whom he recorded record-tying nine shutouts in the 1956-57 season, tying a record previously set by Glenn Hall.[1] During the 1957–58 season was loaned to the Montreal Canadiens by the Marlboros to replace Jacques Plante,[2] and played his one and only National Hockey League in a 6-2 win over his hometown Toronto Maple Leafs on October 30, 1957. He spent one more season with the Marlboros before playing senior hockey with the Oakville Oaks. He signed with the St. Paul Saints, but let in 16 goals in 3 games and retired soon after.
