It's just one opinion, but Hockey'sFuture has already moved the Flames at least into the 11-20 range with their most recent update. (the link below is only the first part, which includes the 21-30 teams - which doesn't include the Flames)

Adding 3 1st rounders can only help their situation.
Then looking forward, they will have several assets to move at the trade deadline again next year. If they don't screw things up, the Flames should be among the top teams in the NHL for prospects by next year's draft.
