Well if he had stuck to his initial plan... Don't forget that after the ill fated Italian attack on Greece in Autumn '40 and the Yugoslavian overthrow of a pro Nazi regime in Winter '41, he diverted assets to the balkans and lost time to initiate Barbarossa. Of course even if he blitzed Leningrad and paraded in Moscow, as planned, the question is would that be enough? Because the problem is that "European" Russia is just a part of Russia...and Siberia is just plain BIG.
