“The decision to change directions and relieve Dave Huntley as General Manger and Head Coach of the Wings was a very difficult one for the ownership group.” said Cline.  “No one has worked harder or been more loyal than Dave and his staff.  He is a personal friend, a gentleman and a brilliant lacrosse mind.  He will continue to be a leader in this sport.”

Huntley, who coaches the Canadian National Field Lacrosse Team and the Toronto Nationals of Major League Lacrosse, had a 22-26 overall record during his three year tenure with the Wings.  The team qualified for the NLL playoffs once in his three seasons, losing to the Buffalo Bandits in the first round of the 2008 campaign.
