I didn't like the fact Bran was upset Ed didn't win 1vs1. Ed told his kids that Reed saved his life, he was blunt and honest about it.
The only thing I can think is that it is meant to magnify the importance of Ned reaching Lyanna. Desperation is so high that the honourable northern houses were willing to stab the most notorious swordsman in Westeros in the back.

As for Rickon, I have a sneaking suspicion it's a play between himself and the Umbers against Ramsay. Just a feeling I got when reading that scene.

Don't know what the payoff is, but that's where I'm leaning right now.
