Jeff Mitchell Joseph Bandura (born April 2, 1957) is a Canadian retired professional ice hockey player. He played 2 games in the National Hockey League with the New York Rangers during the 1980–81 season. The rest of his career, which lasted from 1977 to 1985, was mainly spent in the minor leagues.

Born in White Rock, British Columbia, Bandura played junior hockey in the Western Canada Hockey League for the Calgary Centennials, Edmonton Oil Kings and Portland Winter Hawks.

He was drafted in the second round, 22nd overall by the Vancouver Canucks in the 1977 NHL Entry Draft. He played in the Canucks organization in the minors (Central Hockey League) with the Tulsa Oilers and Dallas Black Hawks before being traded along with Jere Gillis to the New York Rangers. After the trade, he spent the majority of his time with the Rangers affiliate the New Haven Nighthawks of the American Hockey League before being called up by the New York Rangers in the 1980–81 season, where he would play 2 games.

He then played one season for HC Fribourg-Gotteron in Switzerland. After returning from Europe, Bandura played one more season in the AHL for the Maine Mariners; the Mariners went on to win the Calder Cup. He retired from hockey after that season.
