In some ways, it would be better than Ice Lance. Because it's only triggered on the Attacker's turn (not the Hunter's), it will prevent that minion from acting for two turns. The turn it runs into Freezing Trap and gets frozen (it would, absolutely, need to be coded so that the minion frozen in such a manner neither deals nor receives damage). And the minion would still be frozen on the attacker's next turn. Just like how current freeze effects work. The, obvious, downside is that the Hunter doesn't get to control what is frozen.
I'm not sure what the solution is though. But it's obvious that Freezing Trap is a problem because it's such a massive tempo swing. While it's true that you don't want to Freezing Trap some minions (Defender of Argus, Black Knight, Silencers and so on), there are so many times that adding 2 mana to a minion has, effectively, killed that minion and it's never played again due to how inefficient that card has become. Again, the main problem comes as a result of the rest of a Hunter's Arsenal and the fact that they are constantly putting pressure on their opponent. The opponent cannot sustain the tempo loss from Freezing Trap in addition to being hit by the Clock of Doom and everything else the Hunter is throwing at them.

Seems inline with how it should work - would be nice if they made the tooltip when you mouse over Blade Furry make it more obvious it does though.
No, makes sense to me. It is a spell, it does damage, it is increase by spell damage.

No, what's truly bullshit is Angry Chicken - +5 Enrage on a 1 mana critter, WTF.
Didn't see any of the new card leaks discussed here, so let's get started:

Just drafted my 2nd mage in a row. 2 flamestrikes between them (one each), no fireballs, no frostbolts, no polymorphs or any other hard removal. Just faced a Paladin with 2 Tirions. Yeah, that's where my luck went.
Hadn't played this trash game in two weeks, first two games are against two mages. First one(mech mage) draws perfect curve and i lose turn 7, second one uses unstable portal twice and gets tyrion and cenarious. The salt is real.

Other than arena I'm not sure how people keep playing this game on ladder when it's always the same 3-4 decks with little to no variety between them. It doesn't matter if it's rank 15 or 5. I really thought GvG was going to bring more variety but all it did was replace the 3-4 flavor of the month decks with 3-4 others. Maybe that's how it is in all CCG's but it's boring as fuck.
