Joseph Lawrence Zanussi (September 25, 1947 – 2025) was a Canadian professional ice hockey player who played 149 games in the World Hockey Association and 87 games in the National Hockey League from 1972 to 1977. Zanussi's skating ability and agility earned him the nicknames 'Crazy Legs' and 'Tazmanian Devil' and although small for a pro hockey defenseman, Zanussi was a good bodychecker and possessed a big shot.
