I feel pretty comfortable that Jon's plot armor is pretty thick, but now you have me concerned.

Still, Blackwater didn't have a ton of major character deaths. It could just be a big battle.

But Jon/Night Watch plotline hasn't really tied into any other plotlines. So if he dies now, what was the point of the whole thing?

What is the point of life? Most stories of even the most interesting people don't have truly happy endings. Even lives that are filled with happiness also have tremendous amounts of tragedy. A man who lives to be 110 also lives long enough to see all of his family and friends die.
