I actually have a new version on my local machine that appears to do the trick. The new HTML code this season looks like it's easier to parse... I just split up the line by individual games and then proceed as normal. Right now it works with upcoming and completed games, but I have to wait for an active game to see if it works in that case as well.
When I have a chance I'll take a look at the HTML::Parser module, but for now I kind of like diving into the raw HTML code.
