He previously played for the Red Wings of the National Hockey League (NHL). He is one of the 30 members in the Triple Gold Club. Kronwall started his career in Järfälla HC in Sweden, and has played internationally for Sweden. In the NHL, Kronwall gained notoriety for being an open ice hitter, and the phrase \"being Kronwalled\" was coined to describe his signature back-pedaling hits. In 2008, he won the Stanley Cup with the Red Wings. He was inducted into the IIHF Hall of Fame in 2026."
