It’s likely both.
He always wanted to get back closer to home. But he was treated like royalty and loved Calgary, hence leaving it till the final day. I truly believe and understand he was in turmoil over those final few weeks.
At the end of the day, he chose his family as his legacy. I won’t hold that against him. Many of us have done the same when it comes to our careers. Funny that it was always a noble position to take until a hockey player took it.
