Travis Morgan, Musketeers CEO, “The Hot Shots program is something unlike anything else in the USHL. These young fans are no longer fans when they’re selected for this program, they become part of our team!  The players, coaches, and staff make sure they feel like they are a Musketeer and get the best experience possible. When you see the Hot Shots interact with the players in the locker room and see the faces light up on our players just as much as our Hot Shots, it’s a magical thing. We can’t thank Ann and the incredible staff at FVH for making this one of the best traditions in the entire league.”

“We were proud to partner with The Sioux City Musketeers for an exciting 6th season of the Hot Shot Program,” states Dustin Wright, FVH CEO.  “We are honored to open the nominations for our Hot Shots program knowing that the recipients will be treated to a great night of hockey complete with many memories made.”
