Mammoth vs Canadiens is a near coin flip with a slight road lean: as of the morning of November 5, Utah is 53c on Kalshi and 53c to 54c on Polymarket, and Montreal is 46c to 47c. That is a reversal, since Montreal was the favorite on both venues through November 3 before the board flipped on November 4.

The Mammoth vs Canadiens board prices two division runners-up almost evenly, with Utah a 53% road favorite. Montreal has 21 points from 15 games and Utah 20 from 16, per NHL standings as of November 5, and this is the first of two meetings this season.
As of Thursday morning, Kalshi has Utah at 53c and Montreal at 47c, and Polymarket has Utah at 53c bid and 54c ask with Montreal near 46.5c. The venues agree within a cent, so there is no cross-platform edge on either side. DraftKings lists Utah at -122 on ESPN, about 55% before the vig, a touch richer on the Mammoth than either exchange.
The price history is the story. Polymarket's daily series had Montreal at 56c from October 28 through October 30, and Kalshi had the Canadiens at 55c on October 30 and 31. On November 4 both venues moved: Montreal closed the day at 48c on each, down from 53c to 54c at the open, after a 5-4 overtime loss to Winnipeg on November 3 while Utah won 3-2 at Toronto the same night. In the captures since Wednesday morning, Utah has held between 52c and 54c on both venues.
The form lines diverge from the standings. Montreal is 7-1-2 in its last 10 and won four straight (2-1 at Winnipeg, 2-0 at St. Louis, 5-2 at Dallas, 5-4 over Pittsburgh) before the Jets loss, with 52 goals for and 47 against. Utah is 6-4-0 in its last 10 with a plus-three differential (57 for, 54 against) and a 6-4-0 road record, alternating wins and losses over its last five games.
