I should add one item. The stick shaker activated some 30 knots above where it would have for a 'normal' stall in non-icing conditions. Apparently a 'ref speeds' switch was in INCR for the approach, which bumps the stick shaker activation up considerably.
It was the resulting loss of airspeed well AFTER the stick shaker activated that caused the stall.
I detailed above the chain of events that got them to the stick shaker, how they got to the stall can be seen in the seconds after the initial shaker in the NTSB re-creation video.
