I'm beginning to wonder if the Flames did some interviews with people involved and were also told Peters had apologized at the time, and it threw another wrench into the plan to fire him.
Again, given where Peters is at right now, I just don't feel he comes out and lies about something like that. It is a bigger deal than most people here would like to admit, especially when lawyers are drafting his statements.

There were at least 20 other guys including current NHLers in the room to see or hear anything that would've resembled an apology or anything else that transpired from that incident or any other back and forths that Peters and Aliu had before or after the incident in question.
That said, getting anyone to speak on the public record right now to say anything against Aliu's version of events may be a tough thing to do, but you're right, if people that were also there have come forward privately with additional information or context, it does complicate things more as far as acting swiftly.
