The Wild Card round comes together quickly at the completion of the season, so there is not a lot of time for fans to ponder whether to buy tickets. The excitement of the short series that is "win or game home" is what brings out fans for this opening round. Fans of the home team know an impressive crowd can help propel their team into the Divisional round. There can be great deals on tickets in certain markets, so there can be valuable opportunities here for ticket buyers shopping for a deal.

This round matches up the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th seeded teams from each conference in a mini series. The best of 3 game series is hosted by the higher seeded team, and the winning teams move on to the Divisional round. The 3rd seeded team is the team which won their division but finished with the 3rd best regular-season record among the 3 division winners. The 4th, 5th, and 6th seeds are the wild card teams ranked in order by which team had the best regular-season record. In the Wild Card round the 3rd seed plays the 6th seed, and the 4th seed plays the 5th seed. The winner of the 3 vs 6 seed Wild Card series advance on to the Divisional round to play the #2 seed from their conference. The winner of the 4 vs 5 seed Wild Card series advance on to play the #1 seed from their conference. The first two games of each Wild Card series are guaranteed, but the 3rd game is only played if the series is tied.
