This event group covers an NHL game between the Ottawa Senators and Vancouver Canucks scheduled for March 9, 2026 at 9:00 PM ET. Markets span moneyline (winner), spread betting (margin of victory), and total goals (over/under various thresholds).
Kalshi's spread/margin conditions are logically redundant (four YES conditions covering overlapping outcomes), and Kalshi does not specify shootout goal-counting methodology, while Polymarket explicitly adds 1 goal to the winner in shootout scenarios.
Hero Tip:
Before trading: (1) Confirm with Kalshi whether all four conditions must be evaluated independently or if only one applies per game outcome. (2) Verify Kalshi's shootout resolution rule—does it match Polymarket's +1 goal adjustment? (3) Note that Kalshi's >1.5 goals is equivalent to 2+ goals, matching Polymarket's Senators spread threshold. (4) Moneyline and Over/Under markets appear consistent; focus audit on Kalshi's spread logic.
Critical Divergence Points:
Kalshi:
Four separate YES conditions: (1) Vancouver wins by >2.5 goals, (2) Ottawa wins by >1.5 goals, (3) Vancouver wins by >1.5 goals, (4) Ottawa wins by >2.5 goals. These conditions are mathematically redundant—any decisive game outcome satisfies at least one condition. No explicit shootout rule stated. Key quote: 'If Vancouver wins by over 2.5 goals... then the market resolves to Yes' and 'If Vancouver wins by over 1.5 goals... then the market resolves to Yes.'
Polymarket:
Moneyline: resolves to team name (Senators or Canucks). Spread (-1.5): resolves to Senators if they win by 2+ goals, otherwise Canucks. Over/Under: combined goals with explicit shootout rule—one goal added to winning team's score. Key quote: 'In the event of a shootout, one goal will be added to the winning team's score for the purpose of resolution.'
