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.

Polymarket US: prices only

Polymarket US lists moneyline, spread and alternate and period lines for this game. No trade split yet for these markets (none captured, or too few to show), so they show prices only. Polymarket US is a separate venue from Polymarket (international) and is never added into its numbers.

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. A plus number is the underdog; a minus number is the favorite. 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.

Flyers vs Oilers Prediction: A Rematch on Empty Tanks

Four days ago Edmonton beat Philadelphia. Now they meet again, and neither team gets a day off first. The Edmonton Oilers visit the Philadelphia Flyers at Xfinity Mobile Arena on Sunday, November 15 at 7:30 PM ET (ESPN+ and NBC Sports Phil). Both clubs are playing the second game of a back-to-back, meaning they also played the night before. The Oilers come in from Toronto (339 miles), the Flyers from Columbus (415 miles), and neither crosses a time zone.

Who Is Favored to Win Oilers vs Flyers?

On paper, it's a mismatch. As of this writing, the Oilers sit at 14-3-3 and lead the Pacific Division, first of eight. The Flyers are 5-10-6, seventh of eight in the Metropolitan and 16 points back of the division lead. Edmonton leads the season series 1-0. Recent form tilts the same way. Over their last five games, the Oilers scored 3.4 goals and allowed 2.4 per game, while the Flyers scored 3 and allowed 3.8. Our rating (a model built on past results, used here only as context) has this at 50% each, which shows how much a back-to-back and home ice can compress the gap.

Players to Watch

Connor McDavid has 49 points over 20 games, or 2.5 points per game. Over his last five games he is at 2 points and 2.6 shots per game. Matvei Michkov leads Philadelphia with 15 points over 21 games, 0.7 per game, and sits at 0.6 points per game over his last five. Michkov also made headlines this week when Rick Tocchet said he did not ask for a trade. In goal, Tristan Jarry logged the most Edmonton ice time last game and Dan Vladar did for Philadelphia, but neither is a confirmed starter.

The Numbers: Oilers Odds and Flyers Odds

Odds are not posted yet, so we won't quote prices. Here is what to read when they land. The moneyline is a bet on who wins outright. The puck line is hockey's version of a spread, a goal handicap the favorite must beat. Against the spread (ATS) means a team's record against that handicap. The Flyers are 12-9 ATS over 21 games and 11-5 as the underdog. The total (over-under) is a bet on combined goals. Flyers games went over just 8 times in 21, while Edmonton sits 10-10. When prices post, compare every book, because the same bet can pay different amounts at different shops.

Where the Value Is

Expected value means your average profit or loss per $100 risked if you made the same bet many times. To find it, you turn a price into the win rate it requires, strip out the vig (the book's built-in cut), and compare. We can't run that math without a posted number. Our view: Edmonton is the better team in form and in special teams, scoring 1.15 power-play goals per game against Philadelphia's 0.57 (both per-game averages). But both teams played the night before, so if the market prices the Oilers as a runaway favorite, the value shrinks fast.

Who Is Out for the Oilers and Flyers?

Edmonton lists five players on injured reserve: Alec Regula, Frederik Andersen, Isaac Howard, Matt Savoie and Mattias Janmark. Philadelphia's reports list four names: Erik Gustafsson (Out), Jakub Dvorak (Injured Reserve), Nikita Grebenkin (Injured Reserve) and Noel Acciari (Day-To-Day).

The Pick

We lean Oilers moneyline. No price is posted yet, so take it only at a fair number, and shop every book for the best one.

The Prediction

McDavid tilts the ice, and a Flyers team allowing 28.33 shots per game (season average) gives him room. We project Oilers 4, Flyers 2. That is our read on this matchup; the Desk posts a documented free play daily, and it sits right below.
