I forgot about the redundant city aspect. From Colorado Springs, Colorado.... on the other hand, maybe I'll just let someone else suffer through this guessing game like I did. Great clues, you really scraped the bottom of the barrel in terms of player choice
Here's a tough one (at least I believe it will be) with a bit of crypticity to it...
1) I returned to the NHL after a two-year hiatus and joined the Sens for my final stint as an NHL player...
2) I posted career-high numbers in Ottawa in GP, assists, points and PIMs, but not goals...
3) I am famously stern but not quite sterner, although in a similar way I am the first of my kind...
Who am I?
