It was Grubauer's third shutout since joining Colorado in the summer of 2018 and his first since March 9, 2019, against Buffalo. 

Grubauer now has two shutouts in six games against San Jose. Valeri Nichushkin scored in the first minute of the game and Cale Makar added a goal in the final seconds of the first period. 

Ryan Graves and Matt Calvert also scored for Colorado.
