With his draft rights expired from the Rangers, Själin remained with Leksands IF in the Swedish Hockey League (SHL). In the 2021–22 season, Själin notched career highs with six goals and 16 assists for 22 points in 46 regular season games with Leksands IF.

On 10 June 2022, Själin was signed to a two-year, entry-level contract with the Florida Panthers.[2]

During the 2023–24 season, on 8 March 2024, Själin was traded to the Buffalo Sabres along with a conditional 2024 seventh-round pick in exchange for forward Kyle Okposo.[3][4] He played out the remainder of the season by continuing in the AHL with the Sabres' affiliate, the Rochester Americans, posting 4 points through 9 games.

After two seasons in North America, Själin opted to return to Sweden in signing a two-year contract with SHL club, Rögle BK, on 14 May 2024.[5]
