The Buffalo Bandits Kyle Buchanan brings a veteran presence and unwavering skill to the floor every week.

Buchanan was picked in the last round (6th) in the 2012 NLL Entry Draft. He has proved a lot of doubters wrong throughout his pro career, and this season, 12 years in at 37 years old, he’s on pace to set a new single-season-high in goals.

Originally from Ottawa, Buchanan thought, for a moment, and maybe playing for the Ottawa Black Bears this season, but realistically, he was not going to leave a great situation in Buffalo.

In this conversation, you’ll hear all about his thought process about coming back to play for the Bandits this season, the emotional roller coaster ride of the past few weeks for the Bandits, how the Bandits play team ball, and much more.
