Harry Sinden , president of the Boston Bruins for the last 17 of his more than 40 years with the team, resigned to become an adviser to club owner Jeremy Jacobs .
The move is the latest in the reorganization of a franchise that last won the Stanley Cup in 1972 and hired Peter Chiarelli as general manager and Dave Lewis as coach after last season.
The team said it would not hire a new president, but instead align all hockey operations under Chiarelli.
Sinden, who will turn 74 next month, began in the Bruins organization in 1961 as a minor league coach in Kingston, Ontario, and became head coach in Boston in the 1966-67 season. In his fourth and final full season as coach, he led the Bruins to the 1970 Stanley Cup, their first in 29 years.
