Oskar Von Walther took his precipitous fall in the  draft with the dogged determination and dispassionate reserve you would expect from a German man in his  late teens. Germany isn’t a hockey hotbed so it makes getting the proper scouts to your games a bit difficult. Walther’s a  bit disappointed by his position but he’s glad be a part of the Falcons and he hopes to prove the teams that passed on him that they were wrong in allowing him to drop so far. Walther was fairly impressed by the Detroit Falcons facilities when he arrived in Detroit though his normally cold disposition might not have expressed that as openly as his North American counterparts.

As for his relationship with his teammates, Walther's  a  cerebral professional person. He just wants to do his job and do his jobs as effectively as possible.  He's a  quiet, reserved person so this a bit of awkward adjustment period to life on a new team  for him. Especially in a new country with a completely different culture.
