Ryan Bonni (born February 18 1979 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada) is a professional ice hockey defenceman who played three games in the National Hockey League during the 1999–00 season. Most recently, he played for Soenderjyske of the Danish Elite League in 2007–08.

A hard-nosed physical defender, Bonni was selected in the 2nd round (34th overall) of the 1997 NHL Entry Draft. He signed with the Canucks and turned pro in 1999, and had a solid first professional season with the Syracuse Crunch of the AHL, recording 18 points and 125 penalty minutes in 71 games, and earned a callup to the NHL for the Canucks playing in three games.

However, he would struggle over the next two seasons, and by 2001–02 season he was demoted to the Columbia Inferno of the ECHL, Vancouver's secondary affiliate. Prior to the 2002–03 season, he was dealt to the Toronto Maple Leafs and spent a season in their minor-league system playing for the St. John's Maple Leafs. He has since played in various pro leagues, and spent the 2006–07 season between the Las Vegas Wranglers of the ECHL and the Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben Knights of the AHL.
