NBC Sports says camera problem led to fan obscuring view during Bruins-Leafs game

Fans who watched Game 6 of the Bruins-Maple Leafs playoff series Sunday probably found themselves yelling, “Head! Move!’’ at their screens during a certain stretch in the third period.

Some of the more frenetic late moments of NBC Sports’s broadcast of the Bruins’ 4-2 victory were obscured by a fan’s head blocking the network’s camera.

Reached for comment Monday morning, an NBC Sports spokesman said the camera that was partially blocked by the fan’s noggin was not the usual one the network uses in that situation.
