Exchange buyers: which side buyers took (Kalshi, Polymarket (international), Novig, ProphetX)

These are exchange trades, not sportsbook bets. On an exchange every trade has a buyer and a seller, so this shows which side buyers paid for.

How to read these numbers

Kalshi, Polymarket (international) and Novig publish every trade with the side the buyer took. ProphetX carries its trade fills the same way; a line with no captured fill shows dollars matched only. Trades is each side's share of the trades we read since we began reading the market and Money is its share of the dollars buyers paid. Markets with fewer than 10 trades or under $500 traded are left out; markets under 30 trades or $5,000 are labelled Light trading, because a few buyers can move the percentages a long way.

How to read this: "chance to win per the betting market" comes from the actual odds with the sportsbook's built-in fee (the vig) stripped out, the market's honest opinion of the game.
🛈 Wise Guy Desk analysis - not an official play. A free breakdown to help you find value and bet the best number. Ross's documented plays are graded win or loss on the members board.
📘 New to betting? Two-minute translation. A moneyline bet is picking who wins, nothing else. In this game, +102 means a $100 bet profits $102 if it wins. The spread is a head start: -7.5 must win by 8+, while +7.5 cashes by losing by 7 or fewer (or winning). The total is combined points by both teams, over or under the books' number. +EV means the price pays better than the market-implied fair odds (vig removed); consistently taking better prices raises your expected return over time.

A Slim Favorite With One Crack in It

With the vig removed, the betting market makes the Ducks about a 51.4% to 48.6% favorite. Our rating, an Elo model built on past results, has the home side at 58%. When the model and the market split that far, and only one price on the whole board grades positive, the fine print matters. The New York Islanders visit the Anaheim Ducks on Saturday, November 14 at 10:00 PM ET, on ESPN+, MSGSN, KCOP and Prime Video (Local).

The Matchup: Islanders vs Ducks at Honda Center

As of publication, the Islanders are 8-6-4 and 12 back of their division lead. The Ducks are 10-8-1, third of eight in the Pacific Division and 10 back. New York won the only meeting, 25 days ago, so it leads the season series 1-0. The Islanders come in on 1 day of rest, playing game 3 of a road trip, just 24 miles from their last game in Los Angeles with no time-zone change, though it is a late start on their home body clock.

Anaheim has 2 days of rest and is on game 3 of a home stand. Both teams have been leaky. Over the last five games, Anaheim scored 3 and allowed 4.4 per game, and New York scored 3 and allowed 4. Season averages per game show one clear gap: the Ducks score 1.32 power-play goals (goals scored while the other team has a player in the penalty box), the Islanders just 0.5.

Players to Watch

Leo Carlsson leads Anaheim with 26 points (goals plus assists) over 19 games, 1.4 per game. Bo Horvat leads New York with 18 points over 18 games, 1.0 per game. Over his last five games Carlsson sits at 1 point per game, down from 1.5 over his last ten. Over Horvat's last five he is putting 3.4 shots on goal per game. The listed starting goalies are Ilya Sorokin for the Islanders and Laurent Brossoit for the Ducks. L. Dostal started 3 of Anaheim's last 5, so confirm the starter before Saturday's puck drop.

Who Is Favored to Win Islanders vs Ducks?

Barely the Ducks. The moneyline is a bet on who wins outright. Strip out the vig (the book's built-in cut) and the market reads Anaheim about 51.4%, New York 48.6%. The puck line is hockey's spread, a bet on the margin. Islanders +1.5 at -240 (Caesars) wins if New York wins or loses by one goal. Ducks -1.5 at +205 (DraftKings) needs a two-goal Anaheim win.

Neither the puck line nor the total has moved since opening. Against the spread (record betting the puck line), New York is 9-5 as an underdog over 14 games, while Anaheim is 2-4 as a favorite over 6. Exchange money leans Anaheim: 72% on Kalshi (86 trades, $1.2k traded) and 79% on Polymarket (20 trades, $501 traded), light trading that can swing.

Where the Value Is

Break-even is how often a bet must win to come out even. Expected value is the average result per $100 risked over many bets, not what you collect on one. The Under is minus $0.37, the Over minus $2.10, Ducks -1.5 minus $7.72. That is a nickel. Anything worse than +106 erases it.

Who Is Out for the Islanders and Ducks?

New York lists four names. Mathew Barzal, Calum Ritchie and Alexander Romanov are on injured reserve and not playing. Jean-Gabriel Pageau is day-to-day, which means uncertain. Anaheim lists three, all on injured reserve: Ryan Poehling, Ian Moore and A.J. Greer.

The Pick

It wins if New York wins the game. Risk $100 to profit $106.00, break-even 48.5%. Shop it, because Novig is the best number we track.

The Prediction

For anyone searching ducks vs islanders prediction, we see a tight, loose game: Islanders 4, Ducks 3. That adds to 7 goals, over the 6.5 total, but the Over grades negative at -117, so we pass on it. That is the read on this number; the Desk posts a documented free play, and it sits right below.
