Howard Bond Lockhart (April 22, 1896 - August 2, 1956) was a Canadian professional ice hockey goaltender who played six seasons in the National Hockey Association and the National Hockey League for the Northern Fusiliers, Toronto St. Pats, Quebec Bulldogs, Hamilton Tigers and Boston Bruins, as well .

The nickname "Holes" is associated with Lockhart, but there are no contemporaneous uses of the term for him,[1] which appears to have been coined by hockey writer Stan Fischler sometime in the 1970s.[2]

Lockhart holds the records for the most five-or-more goal games allowed to opposing players, with four.[3]
