On May 24th, or shortly thereafter, we should know whether or not this story, which has been verified to some extent by NBC and Fox News among others, is true. If it is, I fail to see how the end result can be anything but removal from office.

And if nothing comes out of this, then the Russia case should be closed for good...

How would that relate? This is a question about whether or not Trump tried to obstruct an investigation into him, not about the validity of said investigation. May or may not be anything there, but this would be unrelated as Trump could ask Comey to end the Flynn investigation even if Trump was innocent just because he wants the press to stop talking about it, or he could have not said anything as damning to Comey but he still has financial ties to Russia. The two are pretty unrelated.
