Where Pinnacle's Line Opened, and Where It Closed
This game was listed before Pinnacle priced it, so the number below is Pinnacle's earliest price on it rather than the first number anyone posted. It was actually posted, it is stamped with its own time, and the market may already have moved before it existed.
- Buffalo Sabres: PINN open +123, closed +125 (longer)
- Montréal Canadiens: PINN open -139, closed -140 (shorter)
Moneyline, Open to Final
Reference market: Pinnacle
Live prices are checked every minute and stored when the price, a line or the inning changes, so readings here are about 5 minutes apart.
About This Chart
Pinnacle's moneyline from the first price we captured on Oct 16 to the end of the game: 26 pregame readings, then 37 in-game readings over 153 minutes. The dashed line is puck drop. The pregame side is drawn on a shorter time scale than the game so the game gets most of the width. Plotted as win probability with the vig removed, so the two sides sum to 100%. Pinnacle is the reference market because it prices every game before and during play, and one book keeps the line continuous. It is not a US-licensed book and is never shown as a best price here. Hover or press the chart for the American price at any moment. The Spread and Total views draw Pinnacle's main line at each reading as a step, so every move from one number to the next shows where it happened, with the prices in the readout. A team we have no colour on record for is drawn in a site colour.
About These Closing Odds
Every price on this page is a book's own last quote strictly before Buffalo Sabres and Montréal Canadiens started, taken from our scan archive. A book that stopped pricing the game early still shows the number it closed at, and a book that never priced it is not listed. 19 books priced this game. Prediction market prices include trading fees wherever a fee applies, so they are directly comparable to sportsbook lines. See how we calculate this.
This page is permanent. The closing prices above do not change again, and the page keeps them at this address after the game, the season and the rematch, so it stays a citable record of what this line actually closed at.
