JT - Yes but the performance grey area you refer to is not so small in some of the crappy piston twins flying around currently.
Trevor - I can't comment on the handling/performance of a B200 as I haven't had the pleasure of flying one unfortunately. But I think you're being a bit harsh by inferring that this crash was caused by the pilot mishandling the engine failure. The poor guy hasn't even been buried yet. Lets wait for the official report before apportioning blame shall we..? There could have been other issues/problems we're not aware of.
