It was that performance that encouraged the Toronto Maple Leafs to sign Sateri last season. Unfortunately for the Maple Leafs when Sateri was placed on waivers he was claimed by the Arizona Coyotes.

In 6 games with the Coyotes, Sateri put up a save percentage of .866 and a 4.22 goals against average.
