I think they realized around season five that they weren't going to be able to hold onto the whole cast for long enough to finish the show properly so they sped things up a lot. they also caught up with the books around here so they had to start making stuff up themselves.
this is a classic problem with long running tv shows. it's hard to get the pacing right when you don't know in advance how many seasons you're going to make.
