VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson is trying to figure out what to bet the mayor of San Jose as the Canucks and the Sharks face on Sunday.

Robertson says he still needs to chat with San Jose's mayor to figure out a fair wager.

"We're going to be sorting that out over the weekend so hopefully by Sunday game time we've got our wager in place," says the mayor.

Robertson says the mayor of Nashville gave him a lovely gift after the Canucks beat the Predators in Round Two.

"We've got a country ham and a bunch of CDs coming from Nashville for that success."

He predicts a good series. "We've had to put up with always playing teams in the east. It's nice to have a west coast rival that is [of] serious stature."
