  +
==Playing Career==
  +
Andrew began his junior hockey career in the Junior A British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL) with the Coquitlam Express.
  +
  +
Then, he progressed to the major junior Western Hockey League (WHL) with the Calgary Hitmen after being traded from the Vancouver Giants for Jamison Orr. He recorded 75 points in his rookie season, tops among first-year players and 15th in league scoring. His +39 plus/minus led the league, earning him the WHL Plus-Minus Award.
  +
  +
In the off-season, Andrew was drafted in the first round, 4th overall by the Carolina Hurricanes in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft.
  +
  +
He turned pro after two seasons with the Hitmen in 2005–06 with the Lowell Lock Monsters, the Hurricanes' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate.
  +
  +
Andrew was called up to the Hurricanes in November, making his NHL debut, but he soon suffered a knee injury in December which sidelined him until February.
  +
  +
He was assigned back to the Lowell Lock Monsters until March when he was recalled to join the Hurricanes for their playoff run. He contributed 5 points in 17 post-season games helping the Hurricanes to their first Stanley Cup championship.
  +
  +
The following season, in 2006–07, Andrew solidified a roster spot with the Hurricanes, but suffered an injury for a second straight season, undergoing an emergency appendectomy on December 14, 2006. He finished the campaign with 21 points in 65 games.
  +
  +
In the midst of his third NHL season, he was dealt to the Chicago Blackhawks at the trade deadline on February 26, 2008, in exchange for [[Tuomo Ruutu]].
  +
  +
By joining the Blackhawks, Andrew was reunited with three former minor hockey teammates, [[Troy Brouwer]], [[Brent Seabrook]] and [[Colin Fraser]], who all played together with the Pacific Vipers.
  +
  +
In a game against the Detroit Red Wings on March 7, 2010, he scored his first NHL hat trick.
  +
  +
On July 1, 2010, in a salary-cap move, Andrew was traded to the Atlanta Thrashers in exchange for defenseman [[Ivan Vishnevskiy]] and Atlanta's second-round choice in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, joining [[Dustin Byfuglien]], [[Ben Eager]] and [[Brent Sopel]], who had been traded from the Blackhawks a week earlier.
  +
  +
During the 2010–11 season on November 18, 2010, Andrew was named as the captain of the Thrashers with Byfuglien and [[Tobias Enstrom]] as alternates.
  +
  +
Andrew was awarded the team MVP award at the completion of the season. On July 5, 2011, he signed a 5-year, US$22 million contract with the Jets.
  +
  +
In the 2015–16 season, in the final year of his contract and with the Jets out of playoff contention, on February 25, 2016, Andrew was traded back to the Blackhawks, along with [[Jay Harrison]] & [[Matt Fraser]] in exchange for [[Marko Dano]] and a 2016 1st-round draft pick.

He was assigned back to the Lowell Lock Monsters until March when he was recalled to join the Hurricanes for their playoff run. He contributed 5 points in 17 post-season games helping the Hurricanes to their first Stanley Cup championship.
