Tickets for the series went on sale Monday.

An “Important Event Info” notice on Ticketmaster’s website said sales for the games in Sunrise, Florida, will be restricted to those living in the United States and that residency will be based on credit card billing address.

“Orders by residents outside of the United States will be canceled without notice and refunds given,” according to a message on Ticketmaster’s website.

Toronto will host the first two games of the best-of-seven series Tuesday and Thursday before the action shifts to Florida for the next two games.

Florida would also host a potential Game 6.

The Panthers reached the second round of the playoffs by upsetting the top-seeded Boston Bruins in a decisive seventh game Sunday. The Maple Leafs advanced after beating the Tampa Bay Lightning in six games.
