If you've ever wanted to live on a street named after your favorite hockey player, Las Vegas might be the place for you.
A new community in the city's north end is naming 30 streets after members of the 2017-18 Vegas Golden Knights, who went to the Stanley Cup Final in their historic inaugural season, according to construction and planning documents obtained by The Athletic's Jesse Granger.
"We wanted to capitalize on all the excitement that the Golden Knights bring to the city, and especially in northern Las Vegas," Taylor Morrison division president James Gomez said. "The community has been such an integral part of our growth and so supportive of our opening. The idea to name the streets after players' names has created quite a buzz and we've already had a lot of interest from different prospects on what street they will buy on, based on their favorite players."
Here's a list of all 30 streets:

"The community is set to open in June 2020. It's our first Taylor Morrison product in Las Vegas, and we couldn't think of a more fitting way to honor the city," Gomez said.
