If the game is postponed, this market will remain open until the game has been completed. If the game is canceled entirely, with no make-up game, this market will resolve 50-50. The result will be determined based on the final score including any overtime periods and shootouts. In the event of a shootout, one goal will be added to the winning team's score for the purpose of resolution.

Frequently asked questions

Prediction market odds often differ from traditional sportsbook odds due to the differing incentives and information sources involved. Sportsbooks set lines to balance action and incorporate a profit margin, while prediction markets rely on the wisdom of the crowd. This market, like others, can sometimes offer more favorable odds than sportsbooks, especially when there's disagreement or incomplete information available to the public. The volume of $1,271,197 suggests active trading and a potentially efficient price discovery process, which may lead to odds that more accurately reflect the true probability of an outcome compared to those offered by traditional bookmakers.
