from Lynn Zinser of the NY Times,
To get to their locker room at Joe Louis Arena, the Red Wings walk through hallways that are painted with the names of players from Detroit’s Stanley Cup-winning teams. In red block letters, the names serve as daily reminders of the franchise’s success.
The twist, though, is that five current Red Wings players can point to their names on those walls in three places. They form the remarkably stable core of a team that is a victory from winning its fourth Stanley Cup title in 11 years, defying the odds to stay together in a salary-cap era.

The New York Times is generally considered the preeminent authority on news. But I have to seriously question their “authority on hockey”:
Perhaps on the east coast “almost certain” generally means “lock” or “shoe-in”; otherwise, you are left to question that statement.
