MEXICO CITY -- Jose Sulaiman, the longtime head of the World Boxing Council who promoted renowned fighters and introduced rules to protect boxers, died Thursday. He was 82. Sulaimans son, Mauricio Sulaiman, said the man who many say raised the profile of the sport in his four-decade leadership at the Mexico-based council died at a hospital in Los Angeles. He had been hospitalized at the University of California, Los Angeles Medical Center for months for a heart condition. The WBC confirmed his death, calling him the "father of boxing." Sulaiman was a member of boxings Hall of Fame since 2006. The son of a Syrian mother and a Lebanese father, Sulaiman was born on May 30 in Ciudad Victoria, Mexico. He boxed as an amateur but quickly shifted over to working as a manager and a referee. He trained and promoted many fighters. Sulaiman is known for supporting Julio Cesar Chavez, Mexicos most famous boxer, and then the fighters son, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Most recently, Sulaiman helped Saul "Canelo" Alvarez, a young champion who last year challenged Floyd Mayweather Jr. in one of the richest fights ever. He lost to Mayweather. Sulaiman also managed to institute new rules and regulations regarding boxers safety and welfare. Among these changes was the reduction in the number of rounds from 15 to 12.

Nathan Beaulieu, Tomas Jurco, Danick Gauthier and Jonathan Huberdeau had a goal and an assist each as the Sea Dogs extended the longest streak in the Canadian Hockey League this season.The New Jersey Devils finally gave Cory Schneider a break against one of the top-scoring teams in the league, and it didnt end particularly well. Coach Peter DeBoers No. 1 goaltender will be back in net tonight when New Jersey completes a four-game Canadian road trip against Schneiders former team, the Vancouver Canucks, who have also been among the NHLs best offensive clubs. Catch all the action on TSN Radio 1040 starting at 5pm pt. The Canucks offense continued to produce with Sundays 4-1 home win over Chicago. Theyre second among West teams with 3.00 goals per game, up from last seasons 2.33 mark that ranked last in the conference. We do all the little things you have to do to be successful, left wing Daniel Sedin told the teams official website. Everyone is buying in. Its a lot of fun when you can do that. No one feels the pressure to score each and every game, but everyone knows they can do it. Schneider ceded starting responsibility to Scott Clemmensen for the first time this season Saturday, and the Devils (9-9-3) suffered a 5-4 shootout loss to Calgary - the only West team scoring more than Vancouver. New Jersey is 3-6-1 with 2.00 goals per game over the last three weeks after averaging 2.91 during a 6-3-2 start, but the latest loss had more to do with being unable to hold a series of two-goal leads. The Devils led 2-0 after the first period, 3-1 after the second and 4-2 midway through the third but surrendered two goals in the final 2 1/2 minutes. Its disappointing, DeBoer told the teams official Twitter feed. Thats a game we shouldve won. I thought we had a dozen chances to extend the lead. Schneider has been quite strong lately with a 1.41 goals-against average and two shutouts over a 3-2-0 stretch. This would be his third matchup with Vancouver, where he spent his first five seasons, after suffering losses in overtime and a shootout in October 2013 with a 2.36 GAA. Those games extended the Canucks current winning streak in the series to five, on which theyve allowed just seven goals. Vancouver (14-6-1) was in line with that kind of defensive effort against the Blackhawks, while Jannik Hansen had the firsst three-goal game of his career.dddddddddddd Hansen has scored in three straight games, and his eight goals overall put him halfway to his top single-season total. We strive this year to make it a four-line team, Hansen said. Its not a matter of one, two, three, four. Everyone knows (Daniel and Henrik Sedin) are going to get their matchup every night. After that its up to the nine other guys to supply the secondary scoring. As long as we can do that weve got a chance to win games. Newcomer Radim Vrbata also scored and has four goals in three games while playing with the Sedins. Vrbata leads the team with 10 goals and has 13 points in his last 10 games against New Jersey. Fellow newcomer Ryan Miller hasnt been quite as effective with a 2.63 GAA, though he has a league-best 13-3-0 record among No. 1 goaltenders thanks greatly to Vancouvers consistent scoring. Hes been considerably better in his last 11 matchups against New Jersey, going 7-2-2 with a 1.54 GAA. Neither goalie will be facing a particularly effective power play. Vancouver is in a 2-for-20 slump, and New Jersey is 3 for 27 in its last 10. The Devils penalty kill, however, has thrived with a 25-for-26 mark over their past six. Canucks defenseman Dan Hamhuis (lower-body injury) sat out Sunday, while forward Alexandre Burrows (upper body) returns tonight.
