(hennemusic) Former NHL goalie Chris Mason has announced that he will debut a new Iron Maiden mask for the 2014/15 season with the Augsburg Panther of the German Elite League.

In Goal reports that Mason, with the help of artist Steve Nash at EyeCandyAir, has continued the trend of featuring Iron Maiden's mascot Eddie the Head prominently on his helmet after doing so in Winnipeg and Nashville.

As a nod to Mason's Canadian heritage, the left side has Eddie carrying a Canadian flag. This is actually a rendition done by artist Derek Riggs, and is the cover art for his new book, "Run For Cover."

On the opposite side, Eddie the Trooper carries the German flag, paying homage to the country in which Mason will see action this year. This depiction of Eddie first appeared on the single cover art for "The Trooper" from 1983's "Piece Of Mind" album.
