I've followed the XL Center discussions a bit (and UConn in general). I've read that it needs $250M in renovations and I've read of the general negative feelings to the surrounding Hartford area.
It's been many years since I visited the XL. I think it is still a great arena and I just can't imagine it needing $250M in renovations.
The sight lines are great. Good layout, as good as you can hope for in a hockey arena. Seat backs for all of the seats. Decent streets, bars, and restaurants in the area. Clean.
I've been to a lot of arenas. XL isn't a top arena, but it's a pretty damn good venue. I don't understand the negative press on XL.
