Ottawa Senators won
Our pick, Ottawa Senators to win at locked odds 1.795, won. It was published with 53% confidence.
Before the start the best price on Ottawa Senators to win had shortened from 1.795 to 1.55, so the market moved towards this pick after it was published.
The NHL meeting between Ottawa Senators and Philadelphia Flyers on 8 October 2026 is listed for Canadian Tire Centre (Ottawa). Ottawa Senators are the market favourites at 1.795 against 2.016 for Philadelphia Flyers, which works out to an implied chance of 52.9% and 47.1% once the margin is removed.
Ottawa Senators lead the head-to-head by 11 wins to 4 over 15 meetings since 2021, counting all competitions combined, and the last meeting came on 6 February 2026. We do not have recent results for either team.
Our pick is Ottawa Senators to win, at 53% confidence, essentially the market chance for the favourite once the bookmaker margin is removed. The lopsided head-to-head count supports it, though the line itself is close. Line-ups, injuries and starting goaltenders are unknown to us, and any of them could matter more than past meetings.
