If they killed a character, it is only for letting the actor out of the show like with Neal - which his death did not provide anything except destroying potential storylines for Rumple, Henry, Emma and Hook.

I don't think Rumple will die at the end of the series. They already did that and they had the option to do it at the end of season 4, it will feel overused if the do it again.
