BOSTON, MA – The Wings (1-3) went down 1-0 in the first minute of play and would never see a lead in their afternoon contest with the Boston Blazers (2-3). Despite there not being an overwhelming number of shots, premium scoring chances were not limited. Both goaltenders made a number of outstanding saves to keep the score close throughout, but it was the Blazers’ Anthony Cosmo who ended up with the final advantage over the Wings’ Brandon Miller. Philadelphia will travel to Toronto to face the Rock this Friday night before returning home to face the Orlando Titans at the Wachovia Center on Saturday, February 6 at 7 p.m.

An early miscue in net by Miller gave Boston a lead only 49 seconds into the contest. The Blazers controlled much of the first quarter, keeping Philadelphia to only one goal. An early powerplay goal in the second quarter by Wings forward Mat Giles was answered with three tallies from Boston, two coming from 2009 NLL MVP Dan Dawson, which allowed the Blazers to keep the momentum. Philadelphia’s fortunes appeared to change in the final five minutes of the half when Boston accidentally put a ball in its own net. Then with only one second remaining Philadelphia’s Kevin Huntley scored his first career goal on a powerplay to bring his team within two goals as they went into the locker room.

Huntley did not wait long to record his second of the season, as he brought the Wings within one goal just 22 seconds into the game’s second half, but Philadelphia was unable to gain anymore ground on their division rival. The second half was extremely physical and saw 30 total penalty minutes handed out by the officials. Miller and Cosmo continued to stand on their heads, turning away quality shots at both ends of the floor to keep the game tight down the stretch. The ultimate difference maker was Boston’s Daryl Veltman who scored his team’s final three goals including the game icing score which came with 53 seconds left in the final quarter.
