Emil Valentin Andrae (born February 23, 2002) is a Swedish professional ice hockey player who is a defenceman for the Lehigh Valley Phantoms of the American Hockey League (AHL) while under contract to the Philadelphia Flyers of the National Hockey League (NHL). Andrae was drafted 54th overall by the Flyers in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft.

Playing career
Born and raised in Västervik, Sweden, Andrae started to play for the local team Västerviks IK at a very young age. Ahead of the 2017–18 season, Andrae moved to Oskarshamn to play with IK Oskarshamn. Andrae stayed only one season in Oskarshamn before moving to Jönköping to play with HV71.

Andrae signed his first professional contract with HV71 on March 27, 2020.

Following the completion of the 2022–23 season with HV71, Andrae was initially signed to a professional tryout contract to join the Flyers' AHL affiliate, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, for the remainder of the season. Shortly after making his North American debut with the Phantoms, on 27 March 2023, Andrae was signed to a three-year, entry-level contract with the Philadelphia Flyers to commence in the 2023–24 season.

Andrae played his first NHL game on October 14, 2023, against the Ottawa Senators. He played a total of four games for the Flyers in the 2023-24 season before being reassigned to the Phantoms, with whom he would complete his first season of professional hockey in North America.

In his second year under contract with the Flyers, Andrae saw more substantial playing time in the NHL, totaling 42 games for the team. He recorded his first career NHL point on October 29, 2024, an assist on Tyson Foerster's game-winning goal, against the Boston Bruins in a 2-0 shut-out. He later scored his first NHL goal on November 25, 2024, in a 5-4 shoot-out loss against the Vegas Golden Knights.
