What I am hoping is that there is a little more to the whole "Death is dead" thing in general. Death is in God's tier, meaning he is equal in abilites or even stronger (He claimed he would reap God). When Sam and Dean are in the Garden, Joshua says that God already knows what they are trying to tell Him. I assume Death would have been able to anticipate Dean trying to kill him, or at least teleport away from the attack. Naomi, who is a normal class Angel or Seraph, evaded a gunshot from Crowley's Angel Blade gun. I think a being with Death's level of power would have been able to foresee the attack or at the very least avoid it.
