As I said elsewhere, I don't think he expected the Chaotic Thor to actually be able to do as good a job as he did of making Dwarven society rigidly honour-bound. If not for that, Hel would have been fine--possibly even better than fine. So, while he's definitely guilty of putting his daughter at unnecessary risk, that doesn't mean he doesn't actually love her and want what's best for her.
