Forget "grin and bear it." Zach Werenski is grinning and wearing it.
The Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman was given an incredible shirt Thursday, and teammate Nick Foligno got one for himself, too.
and one for his captain, of course 😂 pic.twitter.com/zSSdJc7zg9

The shirt first surfaced back in April, when it was worn by a fan before Game 4 of the Blue Jackets' first-round playoff series against the Pittsburgh Penguins.
It's a larger version of the selfie Werenki posted after taking a shot to the face in Game 3.
Werenski missed the rest of the Blue Jackets' postseason with a facial fracture, but at least he has a sweet souvenir for his troubles.
