Niklas Kronwall Isn't Worried About Questionable Hit

Other players have chirped at Niklas Kronwall before, calling him a reckless player.

But this was different.

This was Teemu Selanne, a future Hall of Famer and one of the most respected players in the league.

"That guy is dangerous out there," Selanne said after last Saturday's game, accusing Kronwall of an elbow-on-face hit. "One of these days somebody's going to get him for sure. It's just a matter of time when."

It was Kronwall's turn to respond to the accusations Monday.

"Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and he's entitled to his," said Kronwall, who added he isn't changing the way he plays nor does he consider himself a dirty or dangerous player.
