by the Boston Bruins

(WHL) career (spanning from 2002–03 to 2005–06 and spent with the Lethbridge Hurricanes
, Kamloops Blazers
and Red Deer Rebels
) During his time with the Lethbridge Hurricanes, he played with future Chicago Blackhawks teammate Brent Seabrook
for three seasons. Versteeg made his professional debut, playing in the final 13 games of the 2005–06
season with Boston's American Hockey League
(AHL) affiliate, the Providence Bruins
.
He remained with Providence for the beginning of 2006–07
before being traded by Boston on February 3, 2007, along with a conditional draft pick, to the Chicago Blackhawks
for Brandon Bochenski
. As a result, he moved within the AHL to Chicago's minor league affiliate, the Norfolk Admirals
. Versteeg then played for the Rockford IceHogs
in 2007–08
, as Chicago switched its AHL affiliation. He made his NHL debut that season as he was called up for a total of 13 games, recording 2 goals and 2 assists.

as rookie of the year along with Ryan and goaltender Steve Mason
of the Columbus Blue Jackets
for his efforts. Mason ended up winning the Calder.
Versteeg's entry-level contract expired after the 2008–09 season, which would typically have made him a restricted free agent
(RFA). However, a clerical error in which the Blackhawks failed to tender qualifying offers to their pending RFAs by the league deadline led to speculation Versteeg and several of his teammates would become unrestricted free agents. As a result, the NHL Players' Association (NHLPA) filed a grievance on the players' behalf. Shortly thereafter, on July 8, 2009, he re-signed with the Blackhawks to a three-year contract, worth nearly US$9 million.

championship, defeating the Philadelphia Flyers
in the Finals. His name was originally misspelled "Kris Vertseeg" when engraved on the Stanley Cup, but was quickly corrected.
Due to salary cap
restraints, the Blackhawks were forced to trade away several players in the off-season, including Versteeg. On June 30, 2010, he was dealt to the Toronto Maple Leafs

in exchange for forwards Viktor Stalberg

(a goal, an assist and a fight) with the Maple Leafs in a game against the Ottawa Senators
on October 9, 2010. He scored against goaltender Pascal LeClaire
, assisted on a goal by Phil Kessel
and fought Mike Fisher. After recording 35 points over 53 games with the Maple Leafs in 2010–11
, he was traded for the third time in his career on February 14, 2011. Toronto sent him to the Philadelphia Flyers
in exchange for first-round and third-round draft picks. Versteeg joined the team that he helped defeat in the previous season's Stanley Cup Finals and scored seven goals to go with four assists during the remainder of the regular season. He scored one goal during the 2011 Stanley Cup Playoffs
, which came in the final game of Philadelphia's fourth game 5-1 loss to the Boston Bruins
in the second round.
