Artemi Panarin Gives Rolex to Kings Mascot After Trade

Artemi Panarin, recently traded to the Los Angeles Kings, made a unique deal with the team’s mascot, Bailey, to acquire jersey No. 72, which was previously worn by the mascot. In exchange, Panarin gifted Bailey a Rolex watch. The Kings shared this lighthearted exchange on social media, noting that Bailey will continue to wear No. 72 in the stands. Panarin, who expressed pride in his time with the Rangers, signed a two-year, $22 million contract extension with the Kings after the trade.
