Isn't it. The claim is

2.

He “turned sour against” Peters in the days and weeks that followed.
3.
Quote:
Aliu said two or three weeks after the incident, Peters snapped at him during a drill in practice and Aliu responded by saying: “Don’t f------ talk to me” to Peters. Within two hours of practice ending, Aliu says he was demoted to the ECHL.
That's still just Aliu's take, not proof. What else was going on over that time period? Was Aliu a perfect player, teammate and person? Was his career going the exact same way from outside perspective regardless of the locker room music racist comment incident? We don't know.

All of the other factors that go into Aliu's challenges aren't all on Peters. His inability to speak up about the incident at the time is about the culture in these leagues and that's not fully on Peters either.
