How do ticket sales work for sports playoffs with multiple games per round, when a game that is supposed to take place in two days may not happen?

Question

I’ve never been to a playoff game for the NHL or MLB for example, so how do ticket sales work if say a sixth or seventh game may not take place? Do tickets not go on sale until the day before the game, or do people get refunds for purchasing tickets for games that won’t happen?

Answer 1

They are refundable. My stepdad gets season tickets every year and it includes playoffs tickets. So he gets a refund for any playoff games that don’t happen.
