Leafs @ Kraken: the model and market comparison

A closer look at the Leafs @ Kraken alert, with its original numbers.

Deviate hockey alert card: Leafs @ Kraken; +5 percentage-point edge; model 89%, market 84%; outcome won.

The alert

Leafs @ Kraken — Seattle Kraken +2, 12:25 left P3. Model 89%, market 84%, gap 5 percentage points; side: Seattle Kraken. Sent 12:14 AM ET on Oct 29, 2026. Outcome: won.

Seattle Kraken currently lead and our historical model gives them a ~89% chance to win from this exact situation (Seattle Kraken +2, 12:25 left P3). Kalshi's market is pricing the same outcome at 84% (84¢ on YES for Seattle Kraken). That's a 5-point gap between the historical rate and the market price, so the contract looks underpriced relative to history. This reflects historical frequencies, not a guarantee. Late-game variance, injuries, and fouling situations can and do flip outcomes.
