Air Power tokens and replenishing hand

We came across this situation at today's session: my opponent rolled two stars as his reserve roll, matching a free Air Power token. I rolled a star during my victory event roll, so he lost a card. In the first turn, he decided to use his Air Power token. If he played a normal card (not a token), he would draw 2 cards at the end of the turn. As he played a token (an equivalent of a card), should he still receive 1 card, as part of his hand replenishment, or none, as a token doesn't match the rule's wording?
And sorry if this question has already been answered, my Memoir knowledge gets a little bit rusty sometimes.

So he shouldn't draw any cards this turn, because if he drew 2, he would have more cards than allowed... but then, if he drew none, he would still have 3 cards and no compensation on turn 1.
My point is, that the 2 cards which the unlucky player draws after each turn is composed by a card replenishing his normal hand and another one which compensates his deficit. As he played no normal card this turn, he should receive 1 card for compensating the deficit.
I hope I was clear enough...

So the situation is your opponent started the game with 1 less card "in hand" than noted in the scenario notes due to your star roll.
His play of the Air Token did not use an in hand card, so at the end of his turn he was 1 card shy (instead of 2 if he played a card). The play of the Air Token does not allow a card draw but his being 1 card short of his hand limit does. So in that case he should draw 1 card to bring him to his full hand limit.
Basically, your bonus roll only hinders your opponent for 1 turn.

That is exactly the way we played it! Thank you for clarifying...
