Bruins vs. Penguins

Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)

Core resolution logic:

• Moneyline (Kalshi, Polymarket): Resolves to the team that wins the game. Both platforms treat a Bruins win and a Penguins win identically.
• Over/Under Total Goals (Polymarket 4.5, 5.5, 6.5, 7.5): Resolves Over if combined goals meet or exceed the threshold (5, 6, 7, or 8 respectively); resolves Under if below threshold.
• Spread Penguins -1.5 (Polymarket): Resolves Penguins if Pittsburgh wins by 2+ goals; otherwise resolves Bruins.
• Shootout Adjustment: If the game reaches a shootout, one goal is added to the winning team's final score for all resolution calculations.
• Overtime Inclusion: All overtime periods are included in the final score; the result is determined by the team with the higher total after all periods.

Edge cases & Clarifications:

• Game Postponement: If the game is postponed, all markets remain open and unresolved until the game is completed on a future date. Resolution occurs based on the final score whenever the game is played.
• Game Cancellation (No Makeup): If the game is canceled entirely with no makeup game scheduled, all markets resolve 50-50 (split pool equally between Yes and No, or equivalent for multi-outcome markets).
• Shootout Resolution: In the event of a shootout, one goal is added to the winning team's score for the purpose of all resolution calculations, including over/under totals and spread.
• Kalshi Logical Redundancy: Kalshi's two conditions (Penguins win = Yes, Bruins win = Yes) both resolve to Yes, making the market effectively a 'game will have a winner' market rather than a directional bet. This is consistent with Polymarket's moneyline but represents a different market structure.
