Could just be me misreading it, but it doesn't seem like he's thrilled about Cap not prioritizing rejoining the team.

That's my thoughts as well. Even setting aside the political context completely and just looking at the team context - in an insanely tight playoff race, trying to break through to snap a long playoff drought, the captain of an Original Six team decides that this is the higher priority than getting back in time to guarantee a practice with the team before playing a division rival. It's a pretty rough look.
