Danny Austin

She’s a slave to her base, but it’s all bluster. They would get crushed in a referendum, but she is using scare tactics. We need to be speaking to our neighbours to communicate that.

I love living in Calgary. I’m proud of the city and the way it’s growing. I have family in the rural areas

We know what needs to happen in the next provincial election.

It’s on every single person who believes in being part of this country to vote against her. It’s the only issue. The ONLY issue.

In Alberta, there is a huge apparatus that is specifically designed to amplify resentment.
But like, there are valid arguments for westerners feeling mistreated. Atlantic Canada wasn’t the only area struggling, a break on the carbon tax was bullshit for them and them along.
Let’s talk real

We need influencers or our side. We need to go on podcasts where we may not agree with every opinion. We need to disprove misinfo on Twitter and other social media platforms
Reasonable people with reasonable information won this fight. We won’t win the wars to come without going into the trenches

I’m someone whose personal political views made me largely happy last night.

I think Carney is great. I think Petite Pierre is a doofus.

Those of us who agree with me need to realize it’s only getting worse, though. Bluesky posts ain’t it. We need another path.

Our message will be lost.

You heard right. Not a single Calgary media member can step to me on the harcourt

I Facetimed my four-year-old niece today while she was eating lunch and was trying to tell her how nice it was in Calgary and she stopped me and said “Uncle Danny, your POV right now is just somebody eating a sandwich.”

She definitely doesn’t know what POV means, but amazing stuff from her

I started running like a month and a half ago and it’s the biggest bullshit.

There’s nothing linear about it. Some days it’s amazing. Some days it’s completely terrible.

No way of predicting when or why you’ll feel either way. Just hope for the best.

As I said, biggest bullshit.

Disastrous for the Flames. No other way to put that.

I repeat!!!!!

Declan Rice you absolute legend!!!!

At least there’s Bulk Barn, you know?

An all-time answer from Blake Coleman when asked by @dannyaustin.bsky.social about Adam Klapka's dangles. #Flames

"It's pretty obvious when he's dancing. The boys get excited when he starts doing backhand toeys."

That, my friends, is about as tough a loss as it gets for the Flames.

This is block-worthy

This Calgary Flames forward needs to step up if Connor Zary's out With playoff race coming down to the wire, Calgary Flames need Yegor Sharangovich to elevate his game if Connor Zary is injured.

Wrote yesterday about how the Flames are going to need Yegor Sharangovich to step up in Zary’s absence if they’ve got any shot at a playoff invite.
Good to see him get started with a goal

Been resisting calling every game must-win, but like, were there. Flames can’t lose the Battle of Alberta tonight

Kadri doing the goal-point (or whatever we call it) after the whole rink was doing it was gold

The Hitmen stopped by the media room with Timbits for the media who cover the Flames.

“All aboard the Hitmen train”, as they said

Every game, it feels like I should tweet this again and again.

What a player Nazem Kadri has been for these Flames.

Aw man, that’s too sad. Few guys in history as brilliant in the ring. Spent hundreds of hours watching his fights growing up.
A lot more to his life than that, obviously, but what a joy to have the privilege to watch him box.

Mikael Backlund won't return to this game because of an upper-body injury.

That's not a guy they can afford to lose for long.

Where would these Flames be without Nazem Kadri?

There still seem to be people intent on downplaying his contributions, but he just does things nobody else on this team can do and he does them consistently.

Quinn Hughes back for the Canucks against the Flames tonight

I really wish these American ghouls would just get it over with and say they want our natural resources.

Canadians would still tell them to F right off, but at least it’d be honest.

Personally, I think Andrei Kuzmenko is going to love LA

Oh, you thought your little trade war was gonna be fun, did you?

Americans really didn’t do their research.

We shouldn’t let Bobby Orr off the hook.
Don’t forget that he endorsed Trump in 2020 with a full-page ad

I do hope every Canadian celebrity living and working in the States sees Mike Myers standing on business on SNL last night and understands that’s the expectation.

You don’t get to be proudly Canadian only when it’s convenient and props up your brand.

The current format of our Flames post-game coverage is three takeaways and so far, it's Vladar, Vladar, Vladar
