Harri Säteri (born 29 December 1989) is a Finnish professional ice hockey goaltender. He currently plays for Vityaz Podolsk in the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL).
Playing career
Säteri's first full season at the senior level was 2008-2009, when he played in 22 matches for Tappara in the SM-liiga. He was selected 106th overall in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft by the San Jose Sharks. He was later a first round selection in the 2009 KHL Junior Draft by SKA St. Petersburg.
On 1 June 2010, Säteri signed a three-year entry level contract with San Jose.[1]
Due to injuries to two San Jose Sharks goaltenders, who also happened to be Finnish (Niemi and Niittymäki), Säteri was on the bench serving as backup to Thomas Greiss on 8 October 2011, though he never went into the game.[2]
After four seasons in the Sharks organization with American Hockey League affiliate, the Worcester Sharks, Säteri opted to leave North America. He signed a one-year contract with the Russian club Vityaz Podolsk of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL), who earlier acquired his rights from SKA St. Petersburg, on 19 May 2014.[3]
