My flock has no risk of frostbie but this seems good advice, additionally asparin decreases blood viscocity and should increase perfusion to the affected areas. Good post!I'm sorry to say, it appears he very well may lose the feet. I have witnessed the process myself, and I recognize the signs.
Be aware that he is experiencing a good deal of pain at this point. You might consider euthanizing him. Or at least giving him some baby aspirin twice a day to relieve some of the pain.
The process can take weeks or more. @Eggcessive is right - he wouldn't be able to use his feet if all the nerves were damaged. In that case, the feet collapse into closed talons and are useless. A chicken can't get around or roost. So there's hope as long as he's using his feet.
Keep doing the soaks and Vetericyn. Vetericyn helps grow new tissue in areas where the nerves and blood supply still exist. Don't give up!
