Vivian "Squee" Allen (born September 9, 1916 in Bayfield, New Brunswick) was a former ice hockey right winger who played for several teams over a 12 year career.
He started out in amateur hockey in Saskatchewan, playing for the intermediate Kerrobert Tigers and the senior North Battleford Beavers from 1934 to 1937. In 1937-38 he went to Northern Ontario's senior Creighton Eagles and in 1938-39 the Lethbridge Maple Leafs.
In 1939-40 Allen joined the River Vale Skeeters of the Eastern Hockey League and scored 73 points in 60 games. This caught the eye of the New York Americans. They assigned him to the Springfield Indians and called him up in November. Allen played in six games and scored one assist but suffered an eye injury that sent him back to the minors.
He played in the minors until his retirement in 1950, most notably for the Pittsburgh Hornets and the Dallas Texans.
He is the brother of George Allen.
