I'm a little surprised that there are so few comments and discussions on the game takes....they are always quite balanced and detailed. At least to my eye, there are always revelations that I missed about what happened during the course of the game and insights into why coaching decisions made on the fly have a big impact on the final outcome.

Thanks for the great articles. Happy New Year everyone

I read them after every game. Great insight, always a good read.

Same author, yet never quite the same. Kudos to Bingo on these.

I agree that I really enjoy reading these and enjoy the combination of fact reporting and some opinion/insight as well, which is good for generating debate. I also agree these are good spots for comments on the game. I like the PGT's for humor, gif's, ATL etc.

I read them after every game too. I find them equally valuable wether I attend the game or watch it on TV.

The game takes and Around the League report are bedtime essentials after each flames game

Thanks Bingo and Gaskal!

The thing I like about the Game Takes is they're a great balance for the emotions I go through as a fan. Don't let the lows get too low, nor the highs to high type of stuff. If I'm down about a game, reading the Game Takes helps put things in perspective. Same with the highs of an extended win streak. So thanks Bingo for putting in the time and effort.
