Lance Lysowski Talks Bills, Sabres & Why He Switched Jobs At The Buffalo News
On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News to discuss the Buffalo Bills, Sabres and why he’s now covering the Bills instead of the Sabres at The Buffalo News.
Lance originally came to The Buffalo News to cover the Sabres in the fall of 2018. Even back then he came to Buffalo making a big switch, as he covered the Pittsburgh Pirates and MLB previously. Now he’s doing it again as after covering the Sabres for the past seven seasons he’s switching not only teams, but sports again as he’ll be a reporter covering the Bills. Lance gives us the details in what went behind the decision, what makes him happy about it and what will be some of the biggest challenges. He also discusses what it was like covering a team in the Sabres that lost and failed to make the playoffs for his entire duration there (and seven years before that as well) and how that could be frustrating, not necessarily as a sports journalist but having to deal with players constantly tired and a fan base that’s become largely negative towards anything and everything Sabres for—-well obvious reasons.
They also have a discussion about both the Bills and Sabres, ranging from storylines he’s looking forward to seeing unfold and cover in training camp (starting next week) to if he thinks the Sabres have any realistic chance of ending their playoff drought based on what this offseason has brought for them so far. That plus how he’s enjoying the summer and his time in Buffalo as a whole and plenty more.
Make sure to follow Lance @Llysowski. and check out his excellent work at The Buffalo News.

He switched cause he wanted to enjoy talking about a good team and not make up positive stuff to keep his column in the paper
Quite an interview. Appreciate the candor.
Nice thumb. That photo of Lance looks like a stock photo in a picture frame at TJ Maxx
Class act and outstanding writer.
Will miss him in the Sabres beat
I’m gonna miss Lance and his blue sky msgs about the Sabres! He’s one of the few that actually knows hockey and wrote about it!
