I like to think I would definitely categorize myself as butterfly goalie with a pretty quick glove.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: If you had to pick an NHL\u2019er that you resemble on the ice, who would it be?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: I wish I could say I look like Martin Brodeur, but he had a way more old school style of play. If I had to pick a new school goaltender I would say Ryan Miller because of our ability to use size and flexibility to our advantage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: How long have you been playing hockey?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: I started skating when I was three and began playing goalie full time when I was 7.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Favorite hockey memory?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: My favorite hockey memory was when I was a bantam my team and I traveled to Wisconsin for a tournament with teams in the division above us. We won the whole thing after a 4 round shootout after only allowing two goals on 50+ shots. It was an amazing team effort and bonding experience.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_316\" style=\"width: 201px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean3.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-316\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-316\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-316\" src=\"https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean3-191x300.jpg\" alt=\"Sean O'Reilly playing in High School for Loyola Academy.\" width=\"191\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean3-191x300.jpg 191w, https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean3-300x472.jpg 300w, https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean3.jpg 409w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 191px) 100vw, 191px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-316\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sean O&#8217;Reilly playing in High School for Loyola Academy.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Q: Favorite Butler Hockey memory?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: My favorite Butler hockey memory is looking back on our first game against the University of Kentucky. We didn&#8217;t even have jerseys and barely knew each other\u2019s names but everyone was so optimistic and excited to play competitively again. The team has come so far since then.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Pregame meal\/routine?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: I&#8217;m not sure it&#8217;s a routine as much as a superstitious quirk but whenever I get my gear on I always put my left skate on first then right, and the same with my pads.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean2.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-317\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-317\" src=\"https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean2-295x300.jpg\" alt=\"sean2\" width=\"295\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean2-295x300.jpg 295w, https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean2-768x780.jpg 768w, https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean2-65x65.jpg 65w, https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean2-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean2-300x305.jpg 300w, https:\/\/clubsports.butler.edu\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2016\/02\/sean2.jpg 944w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 295px) 100vw, 295px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Favorite goal celebration?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: I&#8217;ve always wanted to score a goal but have only had an empty net chance twice and I&#8217;ve missed both times.
