Ken Magowan (born July 22, 1981) is a retired Canadian professional ice hockey athlete who spent six seasons competing in Germany's premier league, the DEL. He was selected 198th overall by the New Jersey Devils during the 2000 NHL Entry Draft.

Playing career

Between 1998 and 2000, Magowan played junior hockey for the Vernon Vipers in the British Columbia Hockey League, accumulating 46 goals and 62 assists across 118 games and contributing to the team's victory in the 1999 Royal Bank Cup. From 2000 to 2004, he represented the Boston University Terriers in 118 matches, recording 31 goals alongside 35 assists.

Magowan launched his professional journey in 2004 but encountered limited playing time with the Devils' AHL team, the Albany River Rats. He primarily competed over the following three seasons in the ECHL with the Augusta Lynx and Toledo Storm, earning invitations to the ECHL All-Star Game in both 2005 and 2007. Additionally, he had short stints on tryouts with AHL teams including the Philadelphia Phantoms, Rochester Americans, and Bridgeport Sound Tigers.

In the 2007-08 season, Magowan transitioned to Europe by signing with SC Riessersee in Germany's second-level league, where he tallied 26 goals and 24 assists over 50 contests. His strong performance secured him a six-year spell in the DEL, playing for Grizzlys Wolfsburg and later Adler Mannheim. During his first DEL season, he led the league in goals scored with 29 and consistently ranked as one of his teams’ top scorers for three more seasons. However, injuries hampered his contributions during his final two years in the DEL.

For the 2014-15 campaign, Magowan began with Löwen Frankfurt competing in Germany's DEL2 before concluding that season with Vienna Capitals in Austria's highest division. The subsequent year saw him join Lausitzer Füchse in DEL2, where he amassed 10 goals and added 9 assists over 28 games.
