Here's a bit of history related to the Gretzky trade.
Gretzky found out about the trade while babysitting for famous actor Alan Thicke. Gretzky had to leave Thicke's 11-year-old son so he could report to the Kings. Alan had no idea his son was alone until he came home from vacation.
That kid is now famous R&B singer Robin Thicke, best known for his hit in 2007 "Lost Without U", which I admit, is not really hockey music.
