11. Kronwalled

When you have a verb named after you, that’s something worth noting.  Nicklas Kronwall was known for his devastating open ice hits.  I enjoyed every single one of them, even the ones that were unfairly punished.  If I have to choose one particular ‘Kronwalled’ moment, it’s this one from the 2009 Western Conference Final.  In reality, there are dozens to choose from.  Kronwall played his entire career as a Red Wing from 2003-2019.
