A frost tank with no Howling Blast is major fail. Plus you have Rune Tap and Mark of Blood. No tank should have those. HB is a frost tank's main aoe threat generator. Frost Strike is a great single target threat generator, so you're going to want Killing Machine (which will replace your points in Dark Conviction--getting crits with only attacks you use anyway). Also you dont need Death Rune Mastery as much as you might think. It turns Unholy & Frost Runes into Death Runes which makes no sense for frost tanks as you're main attacks (Obliterate and Howling Blast) already use Unholy & Frost Runes. No need to make them Death Runes because they're already usable. You're also going to want Bladed Armor. As a tank you're going to have mad amounts of armor (especially when in Frost Presence), which will greatly boost your attack power and in turn greatly boost your threat from attacks. You'll also want Tundra Stalker if only for the expertise alone. Improved Icy Talons is nice for groups but you really don't need it. Here's a
rework of your build
with important talents added. Good luck.

my recommendation:

or something similar. I for one don't think Killing Machine is needed and is an unreliable source of TPS, and would rather the points go into Imp Icy Talons.
Fair enough. Its all about preference with those two. If you prefer haste over crit, go for it! =)
