Golden Knights priced at 55% over the Predators in tonight's Polymarket NHL market on $19.2K traded

The Golden Knights were priced as modest favorites against the Predators in the supplied Oct. 13, 2026, 1:39 PM ET snapshot of Polymarket’s NHL moneyline. Vegas stood at 55c, implying a 55% probability of winning, against Nashville at 46c ahead of the 8:45 PM ET game.

Prices and volume

The headline snapshot put trading volume at $19.2K. The supplied Polymarket page displays different figures: $24.6K for the moneyline and $25,868 across the event, rounded to $25.87K in its header. Those figures should not be treated as a single, synchronized observation.

According to Polymarket, the market opened on Sep. 16, 2026, at 11:30 AM ET and lists Oct. 13, 2026, as its end date. The contract concerns this individual matchup, rather than either team’s broader season performance.

How settlement works

Polymarket’s moneyline rules award the outcome to whichever team wins, counting overtime and shootouts. For settlement purposes, a shootout adds one goal to the winning side’s score.

Separate contracts on the page apply different tests. One requires the Golden Knights to win by 2 or more goals; any other result settles to the Predators side. Four total-goals contracts set their respective “Over” thresholds at 5, 6, 7 and 8 combined goals, with lower totals settling to “Under.”

According to Polymarket, a postponement keeps the markets open until the game is played. A complete cancellation without a make-up game instead produces a 50-50 settlement.

What it means for prediction markets

• Vegas has a modest edge in the supplied snapshot. The 55c and 46c quotes total 101c, so they are not a normalized probability split.
• Volume needs context. The $19.2K headline figure differs from the page’s $24.6K moneyline volume and $25,868 event total; the material does not establish synchronized timestamps for those readings.
• Winning and covering are different outcomes. A Golden Knights victory satisfies the moneyline, but the separate margin contract requires a win by at least 2 goals.
• Settlement extends beyond regulation. Overtime, shootouts and cancellation provisions can determine the final contract outcome.
