GI is a term that's been around since World War II, when military officials would use it to describe soldiers. "General issue" is what it's always stood for. Now, it has a new name.

Oh, and what does GI Joe stand for now? Obviously, General Iso Joe.

Who is the hero here, Zdeno Chara (pictured) or 5-year-old Max Mitchell?

The NHL is in the midst of the Hockey Fights Cancer initiative, a movement involving all 30 NHL teams, and the Bruins hosted their Hockey Fights Cancer night on Wednesday when they took on the Philadelphia Flyers at the TD Garden.
