I also look foreward to see how issues closer to home are dealt with. For example, unless there are any remaining Umbers and Karstarks left, Jon will have to deal with a smaller army. Fortuently in the books there are other Umbers and Karstarks, all women though. But one Karstark in the books, Alys Karstark, Rickards only daughter, remains loyal to House Stark and wants to claim Karhold. If the writers bring her in, she could be the ticket to House Karstark's redemption. And Greatjon Umber has at least two unamed daughters and we don't know if their married or not. If Jon plays his cards right, one of them could be House Umber's redemption. If all this happens, Jon could have a stronger army. But it'll be difficult though.
