Taking care of your family is a #1 goal as far as "being a man" is concerned. Now, you can say he isn't a "#1 Alpha Male" becuase he isn't pursuing a hockey goal, which is fair enough, but I'd argue that's probably a good thing.
He doesn't owe us anything, he can do whatever he chooses. Fans are so toxic it's sad.

I agree with you on the "being a man" stuff, and taking care of his family etc..
However, I keep seeing that he doesn't owe the fans anything. Well the fans don't owe him anything either. He handled this poorly and the fans can call it like it is. It doesn't matter if this was a hard decision for him, he handled this situation very poorly and fans have as much right to criticize him and be annoyed by it, as he does to go play wherever he likes. They also have the right to boo him when he comes back, and that doesn't make them toxic.
