He hasn't even been drafted yet, but Connor McDavid looks to have had a road named after him in Edmonton, sort of.

With the draft just a day away and Edmonton Oilers fans thrilled with the near certainty that their team will select the Erie Otters superstar, a couple creative fans have took to the streets to express their excitement regarding the 18-year-old.

A sign in the city was changed from Connors Road to read "Connor McDavid Road of Hope."

Hope seems fitting for the Oilers, as they hope picking first overall in the draft for the third time in five years will finally translate into success on the ice.
