I don't think Seattle's going to have a ton of interest in taking on Krug's contract for the next several seasons. Even if he's still a productive player right now, that could very easily change and I'm pretty sure they wouldn't want to run the risk of being stuck with such an albatross contract. Plus the fact that he's out injured for at least the next few weeks doesn't help matters.
I also doubt Seattle would want to swap out one of their better defensive d-men in Soucy for an offensive d-man in Krug, which would upset the defensive balance somewhat. While it's true they could use some help on the power play, there are plenty of more affordable options the Kraken could pursue to aid in that area rather than tie themselves to Krug through 2027.
