Bold statement: Your happiness depends on checking in, and this quick survey is the key to unlocking real insight about how you feel about the team. But here’s where it gets controversial: can a few rating numbers really capture the complexity of fandom happiness? The answer is yes, if done right—and this short survey is designed to do just that.
The Washington Capitals are on a winning streak, and that momentum makes this the perfect moment to get a fresh, recency-biased read on your feelings about the team. Emotions don’t always follow logic, but they can be quantified in a meaningful way when you pick a clear scale.
The survey is intentionally brief—only a minute or two of your time. Completing it feels satisfying, and afterward you’ll be able to join the discussion in the comments below. In a couple of days, we’ll have the compiled results for everyone to review together.
The survey treats its purpose seriously in that it must be filled out, yet the process is playful in how you complete it. Rate, on a scale from 1 to 5, how HAPPY you are to have each player on the team. Define what happiness means to you—there’s no right or wrong answer.
As a light aside, we’ve updated the presentation to display only players’ last names for easier reading on phones, since a majority of readers access this content via mobile devices.
We’ll publish a summary of the results in a few days for all to explore and discuss.
Would you like to tailor the tone or add specific examples (e.g., how different players impact morale) to make the questionnaire more engaging for your audience?
