The Daily Iowan: Do you have a favorite memory of your time with the Heartlanders?

Jack O’Brien: Probably our double overtime winner last year in the playoffs. That was really exciting to be a part of. 

Do you have any pregame rituals?

I’ll go and throw all the pucks on the ice before warmups. I’ll also try to hit every dot on the ice then top shelf on the net. I just try to do everything at a certain time on gamedays.

What is your favorite Heartlanders jersey?

I love our cream jerseys. I think that they look the cleanest out of all of the others.

 Do you have any off the ice hobbies?

I love to mountain bike back home. I’d also like to get into hiking mountains more during the off season. 

Do you prefer the winter or the summer?

I’d probably say summer because of the weather. I don’t mind the cold, but I do like the warm weather.

What do you think of the Denver Broncos’ performance so far this season? 

I think we all expected them to be good this season but not this good. It’s pretty exciting especially being from Denver and having our other teams like the Avalanche and Nuggets be good as well. 

What is your favorite restaurant in Iowa City or Coralville?

I really like Basta, I’ve gone a couple times and I really like the food there. 

Who is your favorite artist?

It’s a tie between Zach Bryan, Drake, and Louis the Child.

What is your favorite movie and TV series?

My favorite TV series is definitely “The Office.” I’d say my favorite movie is “Inglorious Basterds.”
