Do You Remember That Scene From That Movie On Netflix?
UPDATED 5:30PM – Apparently, NETFLIX got wind of Alain Vigneault’s post practice comments and sent out this tweet:
That’s what we are here for, #Vigneault. https://t.co/8ZAYXcE6Ey #BecauseItsTheCup #PepTalk #stanelycupfinals
— Netflix US (@netflix) June 11, 2014
“@netflix: I like your style, Vigneault. https://t.co/Yb20qITlnu #BecauseItsTheCup #StanleyCupFinal” WE GOT NETFLIX BEHIND US!

Original story:
Alain Vigneault found his lighter side again today with the Rangers facing elimination. He looked directly into the sea of reporters and was disappointed no one asked him to do his imitation of the Netflix Ad.
You know the one…ah, see it for yourself:

Before everyone blows it out of proportion, AV knows what his team is up against, as do his players. To a man they realize there is no point in kicking themselves anymore. They need to pick themselves up because no one else will. Tonight, they need to play to stay alive.
Here is more from practice today.
