His statement is that tongues can be an initial evidence as can prophesying etc.
He showed several places where people received the Holy Ghost and there is no evidence (No pun intended) that they spoke in tongues.
He certainly does not say that tongues is not even an evidence. He simply states that tongues, biblically, is not the hard and fast absolute rule of thumb we have been taught it is.
