I don't think that was ever a 'goal' really. The real goal was to go out there working hard every night and compete, not roll over and die. I think management had seen enough of the team post-lockout that would come out and give half-efforts and not go anywhere. I think part of the rebuild was not just the talent, but the culture on the team, and it is going back to the early 2000's team of hard-work.
