PIT wants nothing to do with Krug, the last thing they need is a purely offensive defenseman who can't handle his own zone.
For the record.
ATM Krug is a 3rd pairing ..... he is currently a 3-3.5 million player
Those two statements don't jive.
No one wants to pay a 3rd pairing guy 3-3.25 million per.
No one.
He's not worth 3 million per. Maybe 1-1.5
It's the real problem with him and why STL is stuck with him. Even if they were to retain him at 50% he's not worth it to another team.
This is what happens when one moment in one game becomes the definition of a player. The illegal launch himself into another player hit that made STL think he could play defense when there was a whole history of him frankly sucking.
No you are stuck on that contract. I think the best option is to buy it out.
