Panarin Bribes Bailey with Rolex for No. 72
Artemi Panarin lands with the Kings in a blockbuster deal, ready to light up the Pacific Division, but hits an immediate snag over his lucky number 72, already claimed by mascot Bailey. True to NHL tradition, the Breadman follows the unwritten code and gifts the lion a gleaming Rolex watch to smooth things over, though Bailey's number honors the late Garnet “Ace” Bailey, a Kings scouting legend lost on 9/11.
