Doddie here:

Actually one of the major events after all that Harry had been 
through and yet had to go through was him and the trio saving Draco 
and Goyle's lives.

I paid extra close attention to Draco's experiences throughout DH 
especially in the rereads..just to get some sort of idea of what 
Snape's early DE experiences may have been like. I also think this 
is why JKR put in the "Hallows" so we could see DD's temptaions in 
his youth as well. Draco's life truly became a living nightmare--
what a journey he had in the series let alone the last two books 
between his boastful bragging and face stomping in HBP to huddled 
between his parents in the great hall at the end of DH. I was never 
much of a Draco fan but I was intruiged by this character's 
development.

Also, knowing that Crabbe destroyed a horcrux helped make up the off-
page destruction of the cup horcrux. I always get a visceral 
response when Voldiemorts "cronies" inadvertently (like Crabbe and 
Lucius's involvement with the destruction of the diadem and diary) 
or blatently like Cissy vitals check that help Harry on his way. 

Doddie,
(who hopes that the Malfoy's finally got it by the end)
