As hard as it is not to absolutely adore Samwell Tarly, he's the sole reason Edd Tollett meets his untimely demise during the Battle of Winterfell. As a fellow member of the Night's Watch, he initially questioned Samwell's presence on the battlefield, and for good reason. After saving Sam from a wight and encourageing him to get up and fight, Edd is stabbed in the back by another member of the undead army right before Sam's eyes. If not for Samwell, Edd would probably still be alive. As an experienced fighter there's no way he would go down that easily in any other circumstance, which is why his exit left us with a bad taste in our mouths.
