The Dave Siciliano Show on Mondays during the season, which included interviews with the coach and the team's players. He promised that his team would be in better physical condition and to outwork their opponents. In the 2001–02 season playoffs, the Musketeers defeated the
Sioux Falls Stampede in three consecutive games in the first round, defeated the
Green Bay Gamblers in four games in the second round, then defeated the
Omaha Lancers three games to two in the playoffs finals to win the
Clark Cup. At the start of the season, Siciliano had not expected to reach the finals nor win the cup, but credited the team for being tight-knit and "just great quality kids" who handled adversity. During the fifth game of the finals, the Musketeers trailed by a 3–1 score in the third period, then tied up the game in the final six minutes and won in
overtime. The
Cedar Rapids RoughRiders won the Clark Cup in the fifth and deciding game by a 4–1 score. Siciliano credited his team for not quitting despite the strong play of opposing goaltender
Alex Stalock. When Siciliano resigned in 2008, he had the second most career victories for a coach in the USHL, and had the most wins for a Musketeers coach with 272 victories. 2014–15 team captain
