The NG is very resistant to icing. I'm not saying it's not possible for this to be ice related, but it will carry a lot of ice without falling out of the sky.
The ground temp was +6, so even if they picked up ice on the way in, most should be gone during when they approached the runway.
Ice on the NG (in flight) does not worry me much.
