Craig Laughlin is a former Capitals player who has been the team's color commentator on Comcast Sportsnet for 25 years.

Craig joined Ed and Steve to talk about the Capitals upcoming series with the Philadelphia Flyers in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Craig started off by talking about whether he is worried about the way the Caps played down the stretch saying "I don't think so, we saw the game against St. Louis which I think was one of their best games all year...I have no worries at all that the Capitals will prevail." When asked if the passing of Flyers owner Ed Snider ignites a spark for the Flyers Craig said "I think it does, it's going to give them a little boost...in the end it still comes down to the best team, from the offense to the defense to the goal-tending it all favors the Caps."

As for a possible second round opponent for the Caps and who he likes in the Rangers vs Penguins series Craig said "I still like Penguins, they're on a roll right now and it's going to be very tough for them not to roll...they're coming in on a high, Crosby is playing like the world class player he is." When asked about the other Eastern Conference bracket and who he likes Craig said "I've always liked Tampa but I'm not sure how their injuries are going to effect them...I'm not really a fan of any of the other teams, Florida maybe if they play their stingy style." As for opponents he would worry about for the Caps Craig said "to me the East is the Caps I'm not really worried about anyone else, to me the challenge is the bigger teams in the West."

Craig also gave his pick for the series and he believes the Caps will prevail over the Flyers in five games.
