The Case For

There have been a lot of hints that a dragon will die this season. If that is the case, then you'd think this episode - which seems like the only time a dragon could potentially come into conflict with a White Walker - would be it. We don't yet know how a White Walker could kill a dragon, or if they even can, but taking down the biggest of Daenerys' children would make for a massive statement of intent.

The Case Against

Killing a dragon is hard. Like, really hard. And killing one that's the size of a 747 even more so, even if you're a magical ice zombie. Drogon's already survived one dance with death, and came away largely unscathed. He's the dragon Daenerys rides, and since she'll need a dragon to ride during the Great War, it would be odd for him to fall at this stage.
