A drunk attending is just as bad as a drunk Chief of Surgery, possibly worse since they are more hands-on and less administrative. I am sure he will still be on screen, dealing with his alcoholism, possibly with a desk job in the hospital away from patients.
This is NOT a spoiler, but IMO, the only decent resolution would be to have Richard kill himself. That would fuel future stories and throw a huge curveball at Meredith and Derek... Also, as somebody said above, when they add one cast member, they tend to get rid of another. Teddy, you are in. Auf Viedersehn, Chief Webber...
