Toronto, Ont. (September 21, 2006) - The Majors kicked off their regular season in Barrie this evening. After spotting the home squad a 4-0 lead, they battled back to tie up the game in the middle frame. However, the Colts combined a strong 3rd period and an impressive power-play to drop the Majors 8-4.

The Majors goals were provided by Kaspars Daugavins, Steve Spade and Micheal Haley (2) while the assists were credited to Spade, Justin Donati (2), Dustin Ekelman (2), Rob Kwiet, Dylan O'Neil and Cassidy Preston. Both teams had 36 shots on goal with Wayne Savage going the distance between the pipes.

Barrie's Vladimir Nikiforov was deserving of the 1st star nod as he generated 5 assists. The Majors were 4 for 15 on the power-play while the Colts were 4 for 11.
