Sergey Yuryevich Gomolyako (Russian: Серге́й Ю́рьевич Гомоля́ко; born January 19, 1970, in Chelyabinsk, RSFSR, USSR[1]) is a Russian former professional ice hockey player. He played as a forward.

He was part of the Soviet national team that won the 1989 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships.[2] He also won back-to-back European Hockey League titles with Metallurg Magnitogorsk in 1998–99 and 1999–2000. For his accomplishments, he was given the title of Master of Sports, International Class, by his native country.

During his playing days, Gomolyako's skills were often contrasted with his unusual, rotund physique, which was the product of chronic metabolic issues rather than poor conditioning.[3]

Since 2006, he has been working as a coach.[4]
