Here is the background on the Doctors Express William E. Barnes Most Valuable Player Award.
As announced on Opening Night 10/29/10, the Danbury Whalers organization is proud to recognize the naming of the team's MVP Trophy as the William E. Barnes Danbury Whalers Most Valuable Player Award.
William Barnes was one of the four founders of the New England Whalers franchise in 1971, which when relocated in 1974, went on to become known as the Hartford Whalers. Mr. Barnes was a cornerstone of the Whalers franchise heading the team's business and marketing operations for most of the 25 years of the organization's existence.
Mike Barnes, an 11-year employee of the Hartford Whalers and son of William Barnes, is part of the Danbury Whalers ownership group.
Mr. Barnes had a great philosophy on life and business. He believed in calling people by their names, looking a person in their eyes when you spoke with them, always being gracious, and having the highest ethical standards.
Many of the lessons, concepts, and strategies from Mr. Barnes are still applied today in our operation of the Danbury Whalers.
To many, Mr. Barnes will always be the MVP of the Hartford Whalers and we are honored to name this award after him.
