Predictably, the Vancouver Canucks went down in Flames in the first round of this year's Stanley Cup playoffs.

Vancouver mayor Gregor Robertson lost too, in his bet with Calgary mayor Naheed Nenshi.

Robertson honoured the terms of the wager, putting on a Flames jersey and reciting a pro-Flames poem penned by Nenshi.

It could have been worse. Robertson could have read out my haiku.

That poem sucks!
It doesn't have rhythm or flow. Probably much like the composer of the poem. In and out of the bedroom.
