Draco was the only one among the present Slytherin house who was shown
to be associating with the DEs, so I'd say everyone else in his house
can be considered the so-called "good Slytherin", unless you are
really talking about the "nice" Slytherin ;-) Though I've always
thought it rather bizarre people were betting on Nott turning out to
be *the* good Slytherin when I think he has a much bigger chance to
become the bad guy  you least expected. If the Slytherin house needs
to be 'lead' to the light side (if such plot is even needed at all) by
one of the student it would have to be by Draco, I cannot imagine
Rowling sparing book 7 pagespace to develop another student leader in
Slytherin from scratch. Though wouldn't you say Slughorn can do a good
job making sure his kids do not go astray? He might have made certain
mistakes but is overall an okay sort of bloke.
