I think a late first would be good value for Russell.

That said I'm not sure if the Flames are going to target picks this year. By the sounds of it this years draft isn't very deep. That, combined with the fact that the Flames would probably like someone who is going to have a more immediate impact, tells me the Flames might try to get themselves a decent prospect, who is on the cusp of being an NHL player, who fills a need on this team.

Of course now that you've put up a poll about Russell's value, the Flames will announce Russell re-signing within 48 hours.
