Boston Bruins players took part in an annual holiday tradition Wednesday morning when they shopped for toys that will be given as gifts to children in local hospitals.The entire team had shopping lists in hand at the Target in Watertown, and many of the players were wearing Santa hats.”It’s hard work picking these out. You’ve got to make some good choices here,” said center Charlie Coyle.”You know, it’s the we can do, and it makes them happy,” said winger David Pastrnak.”I was looking for a Barbie set with all of them,” said winger Jake DeBrusk.”This (toy car) might be for Matty Poitras. He was asking for a new car,” defenseman Hampus Lindholm said about his 19-year-old rookie teammate. “Otherwise, I think I’m pretty dialed in.””I’ve got Bruins gear stacked,” said goaltender Jeremy Swayman.”A nice little elephant with a roll-out blanket,” said defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk.”I got the Hot Wheels cars already,” said center Pavel Zacha.”Atta boy!” replied goaltender Linus Ullmark.”We’re getting through it. I’ve got a few school-age (toys) so far, halfway through infant, so we’re making our way,” said defenseman Brandon Carlo.”Legos are hot, as usual, and Squishmallows,” said defenseman Charlie McAvoy.”A lot of fun,” Ullmark said. “It’s getting easier and easier for every year.”All of those toys, which will go to kids unable to celebrate the holidays at home, were purchased through donations from Bruins players and the Boston Bruins Foundation.
