Pittsburgh to name street 'Matt Murray Avenue' ahead of Game 5

Matt Murray's rise to stardom in Pittsburgh continues to grow.

According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, city council agreed to rename Murray Avenue - a street in the residential neighborhood of Squirrel Hill in Pittsburgh's east end - to Matt Murray Avenue for Thursday, Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final.

The idea reportedly came from a local radio host, who called city council presenting the idea, and was backed by nearly 20,000 listeners.

The Penguins have a chance to clinch the Stanley Cup on home ice for the first time in franchise history, and if Pittsburgh can close it out, fans will be partying on the street regardless of the name.
