Born and raised in Stockholm, Hellman started to play ice hockey with local club Hammarby IF as a youngster. He went to school together with Sven Bergqvist and Stig Emanuel Andersson, who both would become celebrated sportsmen with the club. He was promoted to the senior roster in 1932, competing in Sweden's highest division Elitserien.

Hellman played 19 international games with the Swedish national team. Most notably, he competed in the 1936 Winter Olympics in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. The Swedish team finished in a tie for 5th place, but the event doubled as the European Championship and Hellman thus won a European bronze medal.
