The market, read Monday, October 12, 2026, at 8:50 a.m. ET, lists New Jersey as the favourite at 1.79 (-127). Ottawa sits at 2.13 (+113). I like Ottawa's form and standing here, even with New Jersey holding the ice and the better head-to-head count. I'll take the Ottawa Senators to win. My confidence stays Medium, because the market and the head-to-head count both point the other way.
