Kalshi
This market tracks the outcome of an NHL hockey game between two teams scheduled for a specific date. The result depends on which team wins the match. If the game does not start on time, specific guidelines determine how the market will be settled.
The market resolves based on the result of the NHL game between Ottawa and Philadelphia scheduled for October 17, 2026. If Philadelphia wins, the Philadelphia market resolves to Yes, and the Ottawa market resolves to No. Conversely, if Ottawa wins, the Ottawa market resolves to Yes, and the Philadelphia market resolves to No. If the game is postponed but starts within 48 hours of the original schedule, the markets remain open and resolve based on the final official result. If the game is cancelled or does not start within 48 hours of the scheduled time, all markets resolve to a fair price, ensuring a just settlement regardless of external factors affecting the game's timing.
On Kalshi, this market is priced using a continuous double auction. Traders buy and sell contracts representing different outcomes of the NHL game between Ottawa and Philadelphia. The price of each contract reflects the market’s assessment of the probability of that outcome occurring. As more traders participate, the prices adjust to reflect new information and changing sentiment. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. The price movement is driven by supply and demand; if many traders believe Philadelphia will win, the price of contracts predicting that outcome will increase.
This market resolves around Oct 18, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the event is verifiable from credible public reporting. Resolution will be based on the official result of the NHL game between Ottawa and Philadelphia, as reported by the NHL’s official statistics. The market will determine which team won the game, or if the game ended in a tie, based on the official NHL results. Traders holding contracts on the correct outcome will receive a payout of 100 cents per contract.
Several factors could influence trading activity in this market. Any news regarding player injuries, changes in coaching strategies, or team performance could shift expectations and impact prices. Unexpected announcements about player availability, particularly key players for either Ottawa or Philadelphia, would likely cause significant movement. Furthermore, shifts in public sentiment, as reflected in sports news and analysis, could also influence traders’ decisions. Major upsets in other games involving these teams could also indirectly affect this market.
