The Admirals have qualified for the playoffs in each year they have been in the AHL with the exception of their first, the 2001-02 campaign. The Ads captured the 2004 Calder Cup Title, the first professional crown in team history, with a sweep of the Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins in the finals. Milwaukee's All-Time Calder Cup Playoff record stands at 35 wins and 21 losses, including an 8-3 mark in 11 playoff series.

The series match-up will be the fourth time in the last ten seasons that the Admirals and Wolves have faced off in the post-season. The Wolves topped the Admirals in the IHL's Turner Cup Playoffs in 1998 and 2001, before the Ads got revenge with a 4-2 series win over the Wolves on their way to the 2004 Calder Cup.
