First of all, there is little doubt her opinion/desires/career were important, and part of the decision. I mean, obviously.
But the argument that he chose Columbus because there is a great hospital there is still a really weak one IMO - there is a great children's hospital in
every big city (or at the very least, many). Would it have been a bonus? Sure, no doubt. But I doubt Gaudreau chose the Jackets because of a hospital in town.
