During the 1992 Expansion Draft, Piotr was chosen by the Ottawa Senators. The 1992/93 he spent between the pipes in Ottawa. That was the Senators inaugural season in the NHL and even though Piotr made a great effort in goal, they were the worst NHL team. In 1993, Piotr represented the Senators in the NHL All Star Game.He was the first Polish player to attend the All Star game, where the best of the NHL play. In 1993, Ottawa traded him to the New Jersey Devils.

It looks like Piotr retired from active hockey, but it does not mean that he ended with hockey for good. He has become a goaltender coach for The Erie Otters (OHL). He works there with former coach of Oshawa Generals - Paul Theriault, who was the coach of Peter's when he started his career with the Generals in 1980-1984.
