A few possible explanations:
1) The ice spear didn't explode- it pierced the dragon, which is supposedly "fire made flesh" causing the inner flame to burst outward.
2) The NK is potentially a powerful warg/greenseer like Bran (maybe that's why he was chosen by the Children) and set this trap specifically to capture a dragon.
I've got nothing to explain why he didn't target Drogon. That would have ended the series too soon, I guess.
