Columbus is less than a 2 hour flight, true, but add in getting to and from the airport, getting on the plane, etc, and you've wasted half a day. And you live in Columbus.

EDIT: and as was noted above, you don't get to fly whenever you want. You fly when there's a flight. Inconvenient for a little visit. Wanting family during the baby's first years maybe means she'd like her mom over every day or so.
Gaudreau is rich. A private charter from Columbus to Philly is a lot more convenient than a charter from Calgary to Philly. No Customs. Less than half the flight time.

And unlike public air travel you can leave whenever you want. No arriving 2 hours before the flight. etc etc.

Its not super close proximity like NJ/Philly, but it is fair to say visiting back and forth between Columbus and home would be much more manageable for Mr. Hockey than if he stayed in Canada.
