He's not fat! He's just well rounded.
Seriously though, "Yemelin" is actually Russian for "Mack Truck". All that flab is really a protective layer of thick skin. I wouldn't get too worried about his apparent physique. After all, he spins around the rink like he's walking on air, survived years on the big KHL ice without much problem including World Championships, and hits like a battering ram on nitro.
Actually the purpose of training camp should be to see who survives encounters with the Gremelin. I think he hit everyone not in goalie gear today.
Will be interesting to see his work in actual game action.
