We don't know how this was going to affect players mentally and we saw Rask leave a team that has a good chance at the Cup.
It's not like they didn't have a chance to opt out.

Think about the people stuck away from their families - because they CANNOT LEGALLY MOVE. Not their choice, nor do they make millions. One of my friends has a daughter stuck in Spain. She can't get back home.

Give your head a shake Dion, you're better than that.

For the few - the very few - who chose to put their families first (as in ahead of their egos) - like Rask, Hamonic etc. sure, there is a thought there. The others were all there VOLUNTARILY. And, could leave the bubble at any time if their fragile mental condition required it. I have no sympathy at all for them having a "tough" time.

Their wives, sure, they have a tougher, but not a tough time unless something very serious is going on at home. They still have millions to fall back on, hire help, get the best of whatever they need. That is simply not given to everyone.
