I think I agree with you here. Hagrid is an important part of the 
series, and would certainly be a huge death to deal with, but he 
doesn't seem plot-essential neccesarily.  Dumbledore, any of the 
three, and the more prominent teachers seem to have a large role to 
fill yet.  In other words, JKR still needs them around.  Hagrid would 
be missed, but he doesn't have the same part in Harry's life that 
some others seem to.  He is just a faithful friend, not protector or 
relative, or even a close friend of James and Lilly.  

On the other hand, chills went down my spine when Wormtail received 
his silver hand, and something tells me that our favorite werewolf, 
Remus Lupin, may be dead at his hands soon.  If not in this book, 
then later in the series for sure. Lupin's only real personal enemy 
(besides Voldemort) suddenly developing a shiny, silver appendage 
can't be a good thing for his life expectancy, can it?

So those are my best guesses: Hagrid or Lupin. Whoever it is, I can't 
wait to read the book and find out that, and everything else that 
happens to Harry and Co. this time around. 

Tim- who thinks the confrontation between Lupin and Pettigrew will be 
the coolest piece of duelling we have seen.
