On April 4 at 10:00 PM ET, the Calgary Flames will face the Anaheim Ducks in an NHL matchup. This event group captures both the moneyline outcome (which team wins) and multiple total goals markets (combined scoring thresholds at 4.5, 5.5, 6.5, and 7.5 goals). Resolution depends on the final score including overtime and shootout adjustments.
Kalshi and Polymarket use different threshold interpretations for over/under markets. Kalshi resolves on 'over X.5' (meaning > X.5 goals), while Polymarket resolves on 'over X.5' as >= (X.5 + 0.5) goals, creating a one-goal boundary mismatch at each threshold level.
Hero Tip:
If you bet Over 4.5 on Kalshi, you win if 5+ goals are scored. On Polymarket's O/U 4.5, you win if 5+ goals are scored—they align here. However, examine the exact threshold wording carefully: Kalshi's 'over 3.5' means 4+, while Polymarket's 'O/U 4.5' means 5+. This creates a systematic one-goal offset between platforms at corresponding thresholds. Verify your platform's exact resolution rule before placing bets.
Critical Divergence Points:
Kalshi: Distinct stance: Kalshi offers eight over/under markets at thresholds 2.5, 3.5, 4.5, 5.5, 6.5, 7.5, 8.5, and 9.5 goals. Each market resolves YES if the combined total exceeds the stated threshold (e.g., 'over 3.5' resolves YES if 4 or more goals are scored). Additionally, Kalshi includes a moneyline market (Flames vs. Ducks) with no explicit description provided. Resolution source is 'Calgary vs Anaheim professional hockey game originally scheduled for Apr 4, 2026.'
Polymarket: Distinct stance: Polymarket offers four over/under markets labeled O/U 4.5, O/U 5.5, O/U 6.5, and O/U 7.5, plus a moneyline (Flames vs. Ducks) and a spread (Ducks -1.5). Each over/under resolves to 'Over' if the combined total meets or exceeds the threshold plus one (e.g., 'O/U 4.5' resolves Over if 5 or more goals are scored). All markets reference 'final score including any overtime periods and shootouts' with shootout goals added to the winning team's total. Resolution source is 'https://www.nhl.com/scores.'
