Interesting. Read some analysis that assumed him being alive meant no Stoneheart. Certainly doesn't seem significant enough, to the show at least, to have to bring that character to conclusion. Are the BWB even important to the show beyond being necessary to the scenes with The Hound? It appears he may join them, but certainly an open question at this point.
Only having watched the show, the Freys getting weakened by the BWB isn't something I'd put together or suspect. As only a show watcher, that entire scene seems necessary only for bringing Jaime and Brienne together.
They could show us Stoneheart through one of Bran's visions (which would be a jaw-dropping season finale). But practically speaking, they really have to move on to larger plot lines in the final 16(?) episodes.
But maybe you can look at Coldhand, and perhaps even the Blackfish (he may not be dead, but as far as we know he is) and think the writers DO seem interested in giving readers some sort of closure.
On the other hand, Ramsey has been so, so, SOOOOOO horrible that only a particularly brutal death will do. Lady Stoneheart might be the only truly satisfactory option there.
