The St. Louis Blues are adding one of the best defensemen of all time to their front office.

Larry Robinson is joining the Blues as the senior consultant to hockey operations.

The Hall of Fame blue-liner left the San Jose Sharks in May after occupying multiple roles with the club over the last five years, including associate coach and director of player development.

Robinson first became a coach with the New Jersey Devils when he was named an assistant in 1993, and guided the Devils to a Stanley Cup championship as head coach in 2000.

The 66-year-old won the Cup six times as a player, and he ranks ninth all time among defensemen in NHL history with 750 assists and 958 points.
