Connecticut Whale News Release
Hartford, CT ... Whalers Sports and Entertainment announced today that filmmaker Bobby Farrelly and actor David Henrie have been added to the list of celebrities who will skate alongside ex-Whalers and Bruins in the Hartford Whalers legends vs. Boston Bruins legends game February 19, 2011, at Rentschler Field in East Hartford.
The legends game comprises part of the "Harvest-Properties.com Whale Bowl," the featured event of the two-week outdoor Whalers Hockey Fest spectacular at Rentschler Field that will include numerous collegiate, high school, prep school and youth hockey games. The legends game will face off at 4:00 PM on February 19 and will be followed by the outdoor AHL game between the Connecticut Whale and the Providence Bruins at 7:00 PM.
Along with his older brother, Peter, Bobby Farrelly has written and directed such smash-hit films as "Dumb and Dumber", "There's Something About Mary", "Kingpin", "Me, Myself and Irene", "Outside Providence", "The Heartbreak Kid", "Stuck on You", and "Shallow Hal". The Rhode Island-born Farrelly is an accomplished goaltender, having played collegiately at RPI, and was MVP of the Bruins' Legends game at Fenway Park last year.
Henrie, a Mission Viejo, CA native who bills himself an avid hockey fan, is best known for his Disney Channel roles as Justin Russo on "Wizards of Waverly Place" and as Larry on "That's So Raven". He has also had a TV co-starring turn in "Providence" and has guest-starred on such popular shows as "How I Met Your Mother", "Without a Trace", "NCIS", "Cold Case", "House" and "Judging Amy".
