"Professional Red Bull athlete ruled out due to health irregularities"

Will Butcher, the former NHL defenseman who currently plays for EHC Red Bull Munich in the Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL), will be absent from the team indefinitely due to health abnormalities detected during a pre-season medical examination.

The Red Bulls have expressed their support for Butcher and his family during this challenging time. Christian Winkler, Managing Director of Sports for Red Bull Ice Hockey, has publicly stated his backing for the player. Butcher, in turn, has expressed his gratitude for the support he is receiving from the team and the medical teams involved in his care.

Butcher joined EHC Red Bull Munich from Barys Astana in Kazakhstan in November of the previous year, following five years of playing in the NHL. His health issues will prevent him from participating in training and starting the new season with the team.

The Red Bulls are taking appropriate action in response to Butcher's health issues and will continue to monitor his condition closely. They will provide updates as new findings become available.

The recent search results do not mention any news or statements regarding Butcher's health status or absence from the team. It is recommended that those seeking the latest updates check official team announcements, reliable sports news outlets, or EHC Red Bull Munich's official communication channels, as there appears to be no verified information at this time.

The new season of the DEL, which Munich aims to compete for the title in, begins on September 9. The Red Bulls lost in the quarterfinals of the DEL last season against Adler Mannheim. Butcher won a bronze medal at the Ice Hockey World Championships in 2018.

Butcher is currently doing well under the circumstances and is receiving specialist medical care. The Red Bulls have asked for understanding and requested no further statements be made at this time.

The Red Bulls are taking an active approach in the health and wellness of their player Will Butcher, providing him with continual medical care and support. Despite his medical-conditions preventing him from participating in sports activities, Butcher remains optimistic about his science-based treatment regimen.
