Attempts to find a local buyer were unsuccessful. After an 11th-hour effort by a team of local businessmen failed to raise enough money, team owner Barry Shenkarow sold the team to American businessmen Steven Gluckstern and Minnesota businessman Richard Burke for $65 million. They planned to move the team to Minnesota (which had lost the North Stars to Dallas in 1993) but reached an agreement with Phoenix businessman Jerry Colangelo to move the team to Arizona and become the Phoenix Coyotes. The Jets played their last game on April 28, 1996, a home playoff loss to the Detroit Red Wings by a score of 4–1. Norm Maciver scored the last goal in Jets history.
