AROUND THE WEB:
-- The Bruins beat the Maple Leafs in Game 6 of the playoffs on Sunday but fans watching missed some the action due to obstructed view.
In the third period, a Maple Leafs fan’s head got in the way of the main camera angle on NBC and fans watching at home were not happy.
@NBCNews @nbc please ask the @MapleLeafs fan to sit down so I am not watching the back of his head for the last 5 minutes of the game.

April 21, 2019 @NHL @NHLonNBCSports What's up with this broadcast feed and angle. Got a fans head in the way during the entire 3rd period. Might want to adjust that for viewers in the future. #Bruins #mapleleafs #nhlbruins #NHLPlayoffs pic.twitter.com/nCdG74Q57j

April 21, 2019 Hey @nbc this camera angle sucks. Dudes' heads keep blocking our view of the puck. Can you please do something?
