[edit] Playing career

Murray played college hockey for Bemidji State University for four seasons under head coach Tom Serratore where he was a three time captain and a 2005 graduate. Andrew left the program as its Division I-era scoring leader with 46-69—115 points in 128 contests ranking him seventh on the College Hockey America (CHA) career list and 30th on BSU’s all-time scoring chart. His 46 goals seat him in fourth among BSU’s D-I goal-scoring leaders while his 69 assists is tied for BSU Division I-era best.[1]

He was recalled by the Columbus Blue Jackets on December 27, 2007, to play his first NHL game. He scored his first NHL goal on January 2, 2008, against Jean-Sébastien Giguère of the Anaheim Ducks. The Columbus Blue Jackets re-signed Murray to a three-year, one-way contract on March 7, 2008. The deal ran through the 2010–11 season.

On July 13, 2011, Murray was signed to a one-year, two-way contract by the San Jose Sharks.[2]
