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.

@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

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

NBC apparently only has one camera doing this #MapleLeafs-#Bruins game.And of course there's a guy with a big head standing in front of it.

-- Danny Amendola had a wild weekend on Instagram and his former teammate Julian Edelman finally stepped in to give him some advice.

Amendola posted a long message to Instagram on Saturday addressing his relationship with former girlfriend Olivia Culpo and it was wild.

I have a question - is Danny Amendola the biggest loser in the world? I mean Jesus pal, give it a rest. The first post was bad enough. https://t.co/CWEYLlBkbq

Amendola followed up with a bunch of Instagram posts, one of which Edelman used to let his former teammate know he needs to tone it down.
