So is it fair to say that if a guy like DeLuca can be flipped then it's pretty well lights out for LCN?
"Lights out" is a stretch but he could do a lot of damage to the Patriarcas, especially in the Providence faction.
I think with the combo of Rosetti and DeLuca, the worst case scenario for the family would be its reduction to one of those non-viable families without a structure.
Habitually I refer to the Patriarcas as the New England family. But, in reality now, it would be more correct to call them the Boston/Providence family since they've had very little activity in Connecticut over the past decade. Depending on the damage done, DeLuca's cooperation could possibly decimate the Providence faction. Rossetti's impact on the Boston faction would be less because it's bigger. With the recent busts in both the Patriarca and Bruno families, it wouldn't be surprising to see them shortly become what the DeCavalcantes appear to be - bordering on non-viability.
Mods should mind their own business and leave poster's profile signatures alone.
